The Aztecs had both chocolate and peanut butter. But it took America to put them together.

But seriously, is a cronut just a doughnut-shaped croissant or does it actually bring something completely new to the table?

It's also fried. So it's a lot like a donut, but instead of the cake-y/ risen pastry that donuts normally contain, it's croissant.
