🥜🍫 Ingredients
For the Cheesecake Filling & Assembly
4 fresh chocolate glazed donuts (standard size)
½ cup creamy peanut butter, divided
8 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened to room temperature
½ cup powdered sugar, sifted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
½ cup finely chopped peanut butter cups, plus extra for garnish
For the Peanut Butter Glaze
¼ cup creamy peanut butter
2 tablespoons milk (adjust for desired consistency)
👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Create the Cheesecake Filling
In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until completely smooth and lump-free.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat again until creamy and well combined.
Gently fold in the chopped peanut butter cups, making sure they are evenly distributed.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the filling to firm up.
Step 2: Prepare the Donut Bases
Using a sharp serrated knife, carefully slice each donut horizontally to create a top and bottom half.
Set the tops aside and arrange the bottoms on a tray or plate.
Step 3: Assemble the Donut Sandwiches
Spread about 1 tablespoon of the remaining peanut butter onto the cut side of each donut bottom.
Spoon or pipe the chilled cheesecake filling generously over the peanut butter layer.
Place the donut tops back on, gently pressing to form a sandwich.
Step 4: Make the Peanut Butter Glaze
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the peanut butter and milk.
Heat in short 10–15 second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth and drizzleable.
Adjust consistency with a little more milk if needed.
Step 5: Finish & Serve
Drizzle the warm peanut butter glaze over each donut.
Garnish with extra chopped peanut butter cups.
Serve within 1–2 hours for the best flavor and texture.
