Baking Sheet
small bowl
pastry brush
- 2 frozen puff pastry sheets thawed
- 1 teaspoon water
- 1 egg
- 9 Reese cups or 3 mini Reese cups per donut
- 2 cups chocolate sauce
- Chocolate sprinkle
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Unfold thawed pastry sheets on a floured surface and use a round cookie cutter to cut 18 circles of dough
In a small bowl, mix the water and egg. Use a small pastry brush to brush the bottom circle of each puff pastry.
Place Reese’s peanut butter cups in the center of each of the egg washed circles.
Place the remaining 9 dough circles on top of the Reese’s cups and use a fork to pinch together both pastry circles.
Bake pastries for 13 minutes or until tops are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow the donuts to cool
Smother the tops of the donuts in chocolate sauce and sprinkle the tops with chocolate sprinkles. Chop remaining Reese’s and sprinkle them on the tops of donuts.
Enjoy!
- If you do not have a cookie cutter you can use a cup to create the circles in the dough.
- Make sure that you allow the puff pastry dough to thaw completely before you start to make these donuts.
- If you are having trouble getting your puff pastry to seal you can use a small amount of egg wash to help seal them.
- I used the mini Reese's peanut butter cup, but you could use a large one instead if you prefer.
- I also topped my donuts with some chopped mini peanut butter cups but you leave them off if you prefer.
