Ingredients 

  • 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough

Chocolate Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened baking cocoa
  • 2 tablespoons butter, unsalted, and melted
  • 5 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Vanilla Filling:

  • 2 containers prepared vanilla pudding, or 2 cups

Instructions

  • Start by spraying your air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray or olive oil.
  • Start by preparing the biscuit dough for the air fryer.
  • Place your biscuit dough (I needed to do it in 2 batches, as you don’t want them crowded)
  • Set the temperature to 330 degrees F for 4 minutes.
  • After 4 minutes, check and see if the donuts are golden brown and cooked through. If they are, remove the biscuits, place them on a cutting board and place the second batch in the air fryer basket (If not, add 1 minute)
  • Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl, mix the powdered sugar, unsweetened baking cocoa, butter (melted), vanilla, and milk. Mix well until everything is well blended.
  • Cut the donut in half and spoon prepared vanilla pudding inside the donuts.
  • Wait a few minutes until the donuts are cooled, and then spread the chocolate frosting on the donuts.
  • Plate, serve, and enjoy!
