Directions

1

For the donuts:
2

Heat oven to 350°F. Spray two 6-cavity donut pans with nonstick spray and set aside.
3

Whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt together in a bowl. Whisk in hazelnut spread. Set aside.
4

In a separate bowl, whisk egg, vanilla and sugar together until well combined. Whisk milk and melted butter into the egg mix. Whisk dry ingredients into egg mix.
5

Using a spoon, divide batter into the donut pans, filling the individual cavities half full. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Let donuts cool in the pans, then unmold them carefully.
6

For the glaze:
7

Add cream, butter, espresso powder, vanilla and salt to a saucepan. Bring to a boil and stir until combined. Take off heat and stir in Bourbon.
8

Pour the hot mix over the chocolate and let sit for a minute. Stir until everything is well combined and no chocolate clumps remain. (You may need to heat the mixture over a pot of simmering water to melt the last clumps of chocolate).
9

Spoon the glaze over the donuts.
