Voodoo Style Krispy Kreme Copycat Donuts

Ever since I heard about Voodoo Doughnut in Portland, I have been wanting to go there just for their unbelievably mouth-watering donuts. Obviously being across the pond, I figured I wouldn't have a chance to go there any time soon. So, I decided to recreate some of their donuts in my very own kitchen. I made Krispy Kreme copycat donuts again, but I added some Cookie Crisp, chocolate Cheerios, Coco Pops, and Froot Loops on top. If this sounds like your kind of donut, then check out the recipe below!


*Makes: 50 donuts, depending on size of cookie cutter used

  • 2 cups (480ml) milk
  • 1/2 cup (120g) butter
