These low carb and Keto double chocolate donuts are a great snack with only 3g net carbs per donut.
Good news. Today is double chocolate donut day.
But first I want to talk about the musical theater dynamo known as Neil Patrick Harris. Dude can sing. I just watched a sing-off he did on the Late Show with James Corden (video below). Worth a play, if you've got 10 minutes to spend listening to show tunes. (You do. You know you do.)
Just put it on in the background as you bake these chocolatey donuts.
I based this recipe on a chocolate donut that I found on Simply So Healthy. It's a truly decadent dessert with only 3 g net carb per donut. It's crazy but true. So just remember,
"You'll be swell, you'll be great. Gonna have the whole world on a plate."

Great recipe! I made a combination of donuts and muffins with this recipe. I added a few dark chocolate chips to the batter as well as some espresso powder to the donut batter and icing and replace a tablespoon of the water in the icing with Jordan’s Skinny Syrup Dark Expresso.

Very tasty! I added sugar free chocolate chips and made my own glaze from butter, Jordan’s Maple Bourbon Pecan Skinny Syrup and heavy cream.
