Double Chocolate Protein Donuts

Double Chocolate Protein Donuts {v}

Note: Protein, coconut sugar and chocolate sauce used in this recipe were gifted to me.

If the words double chocolate, protein and donuts haven't won you over already then I don't know what will. Mini little snack sized chocolate donuts smothered in a low fat, high protein chocolate frosting...need I say more?!
I don't often play around with protein in recipes but since discovering Soul Sistas protein and seeing how delicious and easy it is to use on it's own and in recipes I decided toggle these little donuts a go. They are bite-sized so they make the perfect afternoon pick-me-up or post workout treat if you don't have access to other food for a while.
