I have been on a donut making frenzy, I LOVE DONUTS!! These were so much fun to make and decorate. I really get excited about pretty food. The hubby and I just got back from a much needed mini vacation for our anniversary, we had so much fun and it made me come home inspired, yes inspired to make donuts of every variety I could think of. He he he! I would be baking for years if I made donuts of every variety I thought of, however this time I decided I would make these Gluten free Vegan Chocolate Breakfast Donuts, I really don’t think these donuts will make it until breakfast they are that good! The hubby loves anything chocolate and the kids love anything sweet.
