Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
• 0.25 cup Cocoa Powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Granulated Sugar
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 0.5 cup Buttermilk
• 0.25 cup Unsalted Butter, melted
• 1 cup Gluten-Free Chocolate Sandwich Cookies, crushed
• 1 cup Powdered Sugar
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 0.5 cup Gluten-Free Chocolate Sandwich Cookies, finely crushed (for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

In another bowl, beat the granulated sugar and eggs together until pale and doubled in size.

Step 4

Stir the vanilla extract, buttermilk, and melted butter into the egg mixture until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

Step 6

Fold in the 1 cup of crushed gluten-free chocolate sandwich cookies.

Step 7

Spoon the batter into a pastry bag or a zip-top bag with a corner snipped off, and pipe it into the prepared donut pan, filling each well about 2/3 full.

Step 8

Place the donut pan in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the donuts spring back when lightly pressed.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the donuts cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more milk if needed.

Step 11

Dip the top of each cooled donut into the glaze, allowing any excess to drip off.

Step 12

Sprinkle with the finely crushed gluten-free chocolate sandwich cookies before the glaze sets.

Step 13

Let the donuts sit for a few minutes to allow the glaze to set before serving.
