With Halloween around the corner, it's time for some spooky treats.🕷️🕸️ These Spiderweb Mochi Donuts are easy to make with your family. I love the combination of the chewiness from the mochi with the dark chocolate icing. Top it with a cute spider ring (from any craft store) and you have the perfect Halloween treat.
These yummy donuts are Gluten-Free, Vegan and Refined Sugar-Free. Here's how I make them.
