“Embark on a sumptuous adventure with our German Chocolate Doughnuts—a culinary delight that marries rich cocoa, toasted coconut, and crunchy pecans. Each bite unveils a symphony of flavors, an indulgence that transcends ordinary doughnut experiences, offering an opulent journey for the taste buds.”

Man-doughnuts.

Okay, that’s not technically true. Truth be told, anyone can action these doughnuts. The reason I say “man doughnuts” is because when I thought of these bad boys, it reminded me of my husband.

Last week was Mr. B’s birthday and I planned on baking him a chocolate sheet cake to celebrate. But this Southern cake always gives me trouble. Like Big Trouble in Little China, trouble. If I was keeping score it would be: chocolate sheet cake – 17, Lauren – 0. Why? I dunno. Maybe it can tell I’m a Yankee? So I scratched that idea.

My next plan of attack was to make his second favorite cake, German Chocolate. I thought this would be easy and fun to make. But somewhere in between googling German cake recipes and thinking about that darn sheet cake, I bailed from baking a cake. Thus, the German chocolate doughnut was born.

I will tell you, this is the least attractive doughnut I’ve made. It won’t be voted the sexiest doughnut alive. We will leave that honor to the Ryan Gosling’s of the world. Damn, he’s hot.

Anyway, if you’re looking to make something different, but are still craving the classic German chocolate cake taste, you need to make these fellows.

I think Ryan Gosling would approve.
