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 flour, baking powder, cocoa powder, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Step 3
In another bowl, mix the melted butter, egg, milk, and vanilla extract.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Gently fold in the crushed low sodium Oreo cookies.
Step 6
Spoon the batter into the donut pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a donut comes out clean.
Step 8
Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
While the donuts are cooling, make the frosting by beating the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Step 10
Once the donuts are completely cool, spread the cream cheese frosting over the top of each donut.
Step 11
Optionally, sprinkle additional crushed low sodium Oreo cookies on top for garnish.
Step 12
Serve the donuts immediately or store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
