# Steps:
01 -
Drop all the ingredients for the version you picked into a food processor. Blend away till you’ve got a doughy, smooth mix. If making the cookie dough style, fold in the chocolate chips right after blending.
02 -
Take chunks of the dough, roll 'em into thick logs, then join the ends together to make them look like donuts.
03 -
Pop them into the freezer and leave them to chill for 45 minutes to an hour.
04 -
Stir together the glaze ingredients, then dip the donuts into the glaze so they’re covered nicely.
05 -
Freeze again for 20-30 minutes so the glaze hardens up. Store them in the fridge or freezer and let them thaw a little before diving in.
# Notes:

03 -
They’ll last about a month in the freezer or a week in the fridge.

If frozen, give them a bit to soften before eating.
