Notes

The powdered sweetener used in the donut batter is 2x the sweetness of sugar. If desired, about ⅓ cup of Swerve or equivalent can be used in place of the 3 tablespoons monk fruit powdered sweetener .For a change of glaze, use dark chocolate or white chocolate chips in place of the milk chocolate ones. The ¼ cup milk chocolate chips can be omitted from the donut batter but they enhance the chocolate flavor. Leftovers should be placed in an airtight container. They can be stored at room temperature for up to 5 days, refrigerated up to 3 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 5 months.
