In honor of National Donut Day 2017, the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square has teamed up with Entenmann's Bakery to create two mouth-watering donut burgers. Perfect for breakfast or dinner, these unusual burger creations are the perfect combination of sweet and savory.

Instead of creating just one tasty new creation for National Donut Day, the Hard Rock Cafe has gone the extra step and created two delicious donut burgers. The first is the Glazed Donut Breakfast Burger, which features a six-ounce burger patty, eggs, bacon and cheddar cheese stuffed between two glazed donuts. The second burger is the Sweet and Spicy Donut Burger, which consists of a chocolate donut stuffed with a four-ounce buger patty, grilled pineapple, jalapeno salsa and bacon. The donuts used to make the burgers come from Entenmann's Bakery, which is located just a few steps away from the Hard Rock Cafe's Times Square location.
