Combine applesauce, vanilla extract, and chia egg. Add brownie mix and stir until fully mixed. Pour batter into donut pan (should make 6 donuts). Bake for 15 minutes.
Scoop out the inside of the avocado, then whip in a small bowl until all lumps are gone. Add vanilla extract, peppermint extract, cacao powder, coconut sugar, and whip again. Set filling in fridge for 10+ minutes.
Remove donuts from oven and cool for 10 minutes. Use a knife to gently loosen donuts and pop them out from pan, then cool for 5 more minutes on cooling rack.
Once cool, spread frosting on top of a donut, then top with another donut. Sprinkle with a pinch of cacao powder and garnish with mint leaves or berries.
