The texture of these is unbeatable. Also they're really fun to make. Usually I just make 2 logs of 3x3 cookies and 1 log of 2x3 cookies.
My absolute favorite. Comes together really quick and are always super good. I make smaller cookies and bake them for the same time for a firmer texture.
I usually double this recipe and make 4 cakes though you can get 5 out of them if you use small containers. I really can't stress how good these things are. I'm not even a big chocolate fan and ohhh my god I swear I want to make these things twice a week.
These are my go-to doughnut recipe because of how easy and delicious they are. I add some extra cardamom and serve them with black tea or a good chai (the Market Chai from Little Village Tea & Spice is my personal favorite- and you can support a small business :-) ). You can save the oil from frying and reuse it too!
These are perfect on a cold evening. I recommend eating them all immediately because they don't keep well at all though.
