One Of David Chang's Favorite Desserts Starts With A Famous Doughnut Brand

People can't get enough of celebrity chef David Chang. Fans are clamoring to try his tips and tricks out, as well as his best-loved dishes. From Chang's favorite home cooked meal to the chef's recommendation for the best canned tuna, he has shared so much deliciousness with the world.

More recently, he shared one of his favorite desserts with the world, which has an unlikely sweet treat in it as a base ingredient: Krispy Kreme doughnuts. The doughnuts are pan fried then placed over melted ice-cream and cereal milk. Top it all off with even more ice cream and the dessert is complete.

What's great about this dessert is its simplicity, plus the ingredients are all easy to find and assemble. Chang's recipe does include a specific ice-cream brand, but it isn't necessary. Krispy Kreme doughnuts remain at the center of this dessert, so it does not matter if you make the milk and ice-cream at home or just buy these items at your local grocery store.

The majority of this dessert comes pre-made thanks to the help of Krispy Kreme doughnuts. If you cannot find a Krispy Kreme store near your house, it is possible to get Krispy Kreme doughnuts at grocery stores. Just be sure to start with plain glazed doughnuts.

The next essential ingredient is ice-cream. David Chang specifically uses Milk Bar branded vanilla ice-cream. Unfortunately, this specific brand is not necessarily easily accessible at grocery stores, but there are alternative ways to achieve the same taste and function needed for this recipe.

To recreate the Milk Bar aspect of this recipe, simply get your favorite vanilla ice-cream and your favorite cereal. Allow the ice-cream to melt and absorb the flavors of the cereal. Pan sear the doughnuts a little on each side, place them in the melted ice-cream, and add more unmelted ice-cream on top.
