5. Choco Peanut Honey Doughnut

5.   Choco Peanut Honey Doughnut(Php.15.00)

Ah, breakfast. What better way to start the day than with an oversized yeasty doughnut, flash-fried, sugar-glazed and piped full of delicious jelly, peanut butter or Nutella?. Rich chocolate cheesecake filling is on top of the cookie crust, and creamy peanut butter is swirled on top.  Then they are baked and cooled.  To make them look pretty and taste even more decadent, they are drizzled with melted chocolate and garnished with another piece of Peanut Butter Patty. 

Ingredients:

10 Peanut Butter Patties, whole

8 oz cream cheese, room temperature ( I used 1/3 less fat)

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

3 oz semi-sweet chocolate baking squares (3 squares), melted and cooled

1 egg

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (I used Jif reduced fat)

Direction:

In a large stand mixer, beat together the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until sugar is smooth.  Melt the chocolate and let cool for a few minutes.  Turn the mixer on low and slowly add in the melted chocolate.  Add the egg and mix just until blended.  Use an ice cream scoop to fill each cookie coated liner 2/3 full.

Microwave the peanut butter for 20 seconds and stir.  Place about a teaspoon of peanut butter in the middle of each chocolate cheesecake and use a toothpick to swirl.  Bake for 18-20 minutes, or just until set around the edges.  Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan to room temperature.  Refrigerate for 4 hours.
