Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and grease a donut pan with non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder.
In another bowl, mix the whole milk, melted unsalted butter, large eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a donut comes out clean.
Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar and heavy cream until smooth. Add more heavy cream a tablespoon at a time if a thinner consistency is desired.
Once the donuts are cooled, dip the tops into the glaze and return them to the wire rack. Sprinkle additional crushed cookies on top for extra flavor.
Let the glaze set for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your nut-free cookies and cream donuts!
