Ingredients

• Baked Donut
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 1 large egg
• 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 and 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• Samoa Cookie Topping
• 15 ounce bag of caramel, unwrap all of the caramels, set aside
• 3 cups shredded sweetened coconut, toasted
• 3 tablespoons milk
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup dark chocolate melting wafers, I used Ghirardelli

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray donut pan with cooking oil.
• In a medium mixing bowl add flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, and sugar.
• Shift together, then add in milk, sour cream, egg, melted butter and vanilla extract. Stir together until well combined and smooth.
• If you don’t have a piping bag, cut the corner of a Ziploc bag, add batter and pipe the dough evenly into the prepared pans, about 2/3 full in each donut ring.
• Set in oven and bake for 9-10 minutes, remove from oven and cool on baking rack.
• Remove donuts from baking rack once cooled.
• Melt dark chocolate melting wafers in the microwave following package directions. Dip the bottom half of the donut into the chocolate, tap off the extra chocolate and set upside down, chocolate side up on cooling rack and let the chocolate harden. Repeat with remaining donuts.
• Once chocolate has hardened, making topping. Melt unwrapped caramels and milk in a medium mixing bowl for 1 minutes, remove from microwave and stir, then place back in microwave for 30 seconds and stir again. Repeat process until caramel is completely melted and smooth, stir in salt and toasted coconut.
• Immediately frost the top of each donut and place back on cool rack to let topping harden. Frost all of the donuts, then use remaining chocolate and drizzle using a zig-zag motion over the donuts, to get the chocolate lines.
• Serve immediately or store on counter until ready to serve.
• To store leftovers, if you have any and store in a container with lid or Ziploc bag.
