It’s finally time for doughnuts again, Yes!
I hope you are in the mood for some doughnuts (or is it donuts? what’s the difference?)! Ha! I say that like it’s possible to not be in the mood for a doughnut. What a ridiculous notion.

The weather has been pretty cool and rainy recently and I’ve been on a tea kick. Chai tea. And what better way to have your tea than baked into some treats? Then you can enjoy a cup of tea AND a treat!

Anyway, these doughnuts are so good! Even if you aren’t a huge fan of chai I think you’d still like them because the flavors are more mild in doughnut form and when you top these with that sweet vanilla bean icing…….mmmmmmm!
