Our Order at Gourdoughs

gourdoughs big fat donuts austinWith our first visit to Gourdoughs we decided to ease into the experience and try the Naughty and Nice (doughnut with simple sugar and spice). Perfect choice, as this doughnut was incredible. Also helped that he comes with a cup of melted butter to add the naughty in this doughnut.

Having such a great experience, we had to go back the next night for another. This time we decided to go for it all and order the Blackout. Now if you’re not a Chocolate Lover, stay away from this one. If you are a chocolate lover, stay away from this one unless you have a few chocolate lovers to help because it is super rich. This doughnut is made with brownie batter, chocolate covered brownie bites and covered with fudge icing. Not for the weak and timid, but damn good chocolate.

More than Just Donuts

Gourdoughs is an experience all in itself. Its just as fun reading the menu as it is seeing and tasting your doughnut sensation for the first time. We have a long way to go before we really found out what Gourdoughs is all about. We have 2 doughnuts down and 21 more to go. We will be sure to document as we continue our journey through this funky and satisfying doughnut adventure.
