The Skyline Chili Dip Doughnut
A newfound staple of Bengals season is Starlight Doughnut Lab’s Skyline Chili Dip Doughnut. The doughnut is exactly as it sounds — a delicious, hot doughnut made to taste exactly like the staple game day snack. The made-from-scratch brioche doughnut is packed with aromatic Skyline chili, cheese, onions and cream cheese, creating an explosion of savory Cincinnati flavors in an easy-to-eat vessel. For the next tailgate, instead of making your own skyline dip in the oven at home, stop by Starlight Doughnut Lab in Norwood for a dozen of these. starlightdoughnutlab.com.
