Scrape the dough into a greased container, cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Two hours before you want to roll the dough, remove it from the refrigerator to temper. Dump the dough onto a floured work surface and roll to 1/2-inch thick. Cut the donuts using a donut cutter and place on a tray with parchment paper that's been greased and floured. Cover with plastic wrap and let proof for 1 hour.

Then, grind the toffee in a food processor with the toasted pecans. It should be uniformly finely ground.
• For the glaze: Whisk the milk and confectioners' sugar together until perfectly smooth. Strain to remove any lumps.
