Toffee Struesel Baked Chocolate Donuts

I am going to have a really unpopular opinion right now.
I'm not a big donut fan.

Krispy Kreme original glazed donuts....GROSS! Everyone I know loves them. Sorry, KK :(

I'm in love with homemade donuts though...especially cake donuts. KK and DD have amazing cake donuts. I get kind of bummed when someone brings a variety box of donuts and there are zero cake donuts. Don't I just sound like a brat? :)

Again, cake donuts...homemade donuts - HECK YES! I gobble them up. These baked chocolate donuts with streusel topping are kind of cake-like. They are unbelievably good. The buttery toffee goodness of the streusel on top...oh my goodness! YES! Y'all have got to try these!
