    Ingredients:
    For the donuts:

    1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
    1 tablespoon baking powder
    ¼ teaspoon salt
    ½ cup granulated sugar
    ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
    2 large eggs
    ½ cup whole milk
    ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for frying)
    For the Toffifee glaze:

    1/2 cup heavy cream
    ½ cup brown sugar
    ¼ cup unsalted butter
    ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
    1 tablespoon honey
    ½ cup chopped hazelnuts
    2 tablespoons cocoa powder
    Directions:
    Prepare the donut batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Gradually combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.

    Shape the donuts: Heat the oil in a frying pan or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully spoon the donut batter into a donut pan, filling each cavity about halfway.

    Fry the donuts: Fry the donuts in batches for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to remove the donuts from the oil and let them drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

    Make the Toffifee glaze: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, honey, and heavy cream, stirring until the mixture is smooth. Bring to a gentle simmer and let it cook for 3-4 minutes. Stir in the cocoa powder and vanilla extract, and cook for another minute.

    Assemble the donuts: Dip each warm donut into the Toffifee glaze, ensuring it’s coated evenly. Sprinkle with chopped hazelnuts for added crunch and flavor.

    Serve and enjoy: Let the donuts set for a few minutes to allow the glaze to firm up. Serve warm and enjoy the sweet, gooey bliss of caramel, nuts, and chocolate.

    Serving and Storage Tips:
    Serving: These Toffifee donuts are best enjoyed fresh and warm. They make a wonderful breakfast treat, an afternoon snack, or a dessert for special occasions. Pair them with a hot cup of coffee or milk for the ultimate indulgence.
    Storage: If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To keep the donuts fresh, consider reheating them for a few seconds in the microwave to revive their softness.

    Toffifee Donut Holes: Instead of making traditional donuts, shape the dough into small balls to create Toffifee donut holes. These bite-sized treats are perfect for snacking or sharing at a party.
    Vegan Version: Substitute the eggs with a flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal mixed with 3 tablespoons water), and replace the butter with vegan butter or coconut oil. Use plant-based milk such as almond or oat milk for the glaze.
    Toffee-Filled Donuts: Add a small dollop of toffee filling inside each donut before frying for a gooey surprise in every bite.
    FAQ:
    Q1: Can I bake these donuts instead of frying them? Yes, you can bake the donuts! Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the donuts in a greased donut pan for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

    Q2: Can I use store-bought Toffifee candy for the glaze? Yes, you can chop up Toffifee candies and add them directly to the glaze mixture for an extra punch of caramel and hazelnut flavor.

    Q3: How can I make the donuts healthier? You can substitute some of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour, and reduce the amount of sugar in both the donut batter and the glaze. Alternatively, you could use a sugar substitute to reduce the calorie count.

    Q4: What if I don’t have hazelnuts? You can use any nut of your choice, such as almonds or pecans, as a substitute for hazelnuts. Alternatively, you can skip the nuts if you prefer a smoother donut.
