This decadent treat begins with Krispy Kreme’s Original Glazed Doughnut, dipped in velvety chocolate icing and topped with a swirl of brownie batter-flavored buttercream. Crushed Frosted Chocolatey Fudge Pop-Tarts Bites and white nonpareils complete this rich, chocolate lover’s dream.

Pop-Tarts Frosted Brown Sugar Cinnamon Doughnut
