🛒 Ingredients

Makes 4 donut sandwiches

4 chocolate-glazed donuts
½ cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 tbsp powdered sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)
¼ cup crushed Reese’s or chocolate candy (optional, for topping or garnish)
Optional drizzle: melted chocolate or warm peanut butter

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Make the Filling

In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth and fluffy.
Add powdered sugar if you prefer a sweeter filling. Beat until fully combined.

2. Slice the Donuts

Carefully slice each donut in half horizontally to create a top and bottom.

3. Assemble the Sandwiches

Spread a generous layer of the peanut butter filling onto the bottom half of each donut.
Gently press the top half of the donut over the filling to sandwich it together.

4. Add Garnish (Optional but recommended)

Roll the edges of the filling in crushed Reese’s or chocolate candy for added crunch and flair.
Drizzle melted chocolate or a little peanut butter on top for extra indulgence.

5. Chill & Serve

Place the assembled sandwiches in the fridge for 20–30 minutes to firm up the filling.
Serve chilled or slightly softened—either way, they’re irresistible!

💡 Tips & Variations

Swap the Donuts: Try with plain glazed, vanilla-frosted, or cake donuts.
Add Texture: Use crunchy peanut butter or stir crushed peanuts into the filling.
Mini Version: Make with mini donuts for party-perfect bites.
Freeze for Later: Wrap in plastic and freeze for up to 2 weeks. Let thaw slightly before eating for an ice cream sandwich–like experience.
