Recipe Description
Eeeeek, I’m so excited! I have another coffee recipe coming at you. These coffee custard filled donuts are absolutely amazing. I’ve been a big fan of donuts as of late. I could eat an entire batch of them fresh out of the fryer. Of course, I’m an adult and don’t do that. It’s mainly because my body would hate me for days afterwards, if I’m honest.
Call me crazy, but I had a cup of coffee with my coffee donut the other morning! I had to make some strong coffee anyway for this recipe. I am absolutely in love with my new Ninja Coffee Bar® System. I feel like a stay-at-home barista now. The best part is that I can get better coffee from home than I would at a coffee house. Believe it or not, it was actually on my Christmas list this year. My husband was a little discouraged with me when he found out that I got a sponsorship that included one.
