This donut breaks all the rules.

Would you care for some cheese on your donut? If you do, hit up KFC locations in Indonesia, which recently introduced a donut topped with a mixture of shredded Swiss and Cheddar cheese.

Don't expect to find these in the U.S. anytime soon; KFC's stateside menus don't feature donuts, cheese-infused or otherwise. KFC stores in Indonesia, however, feature several varieties as part of its KFC Coffee menu. (KFC Coffee looks similar to McDonald's McCafe concept.)

But KFC isn't the only chain offering cheese-flavored donuts in Indonesia. The country's Dunkin' Donuts branch also offers several cheese-topped desserts.

Cheese-topped donuts may seem odd to Westerners, but at least one other Indonesian dessert is made with cheese: murtabak, a pancake of chocolate and cheese.

2012's Craziest Fast Food Items

Pizza Hut's "Crown Crust Carnival"(01 of12)

If regular pizza crust has you bored stiff, venture to the Middle East for Pizza Hut's stuffed crust pies -- filled with cheeseburgers and chicken fingers. They're aptly named "Crown Crust Carnival" pizzas. (credit:Pizza Hut)

Pizza Hut's Hot Dog Stuffed Crust(02 of12)

Hot dog-stuffed crust from Pizza Hut is a very real thing, but unfortunately only in the U.K. Drat. (credit:Pizza Hut)

McDonald's "Gracoro" Burger(03 of12)

We love croquettes, but on a burger? McDonald's Japan recently unveiled a burger with a croquette-esque patty of macaroni, shrimp and white sauce with a breadcrumb crust called the "Gracoro" burger (credit:McDonald's)

Pizza Hut's Cheesy Bites Pizza(04 of12)

First there was Pizza Hut U.K.'s hot dog-stuffed pizza. Then there was the Pizza Hut Middle East's hamburgers and chicken strips-stuffed crust. And then, crazy stuffed crust came to the U.S. with Pizza Hut's Cheesy Bites Pizza. (credit:Pizza Hut)

KFC's "Cheese Top Burger"(05 of12)

Yes, this is real: KFC Philippines is offering something called the "Cheese Top Burger," a fried chicken patty sandwich with garlic Parmesan dressing and a slice of cheese melted atop the bun. (credit:KFC)

Pizza Hut's "Double Sensation"(06 of12)

Available only in Singapore through the end of December, Pizza Hut's "Double Sensation" pie featured two crusts and two different rings of toppings. It's like two pizzas in one! (credit:Pizza Hut)

Taco Bell's Doritos Locos Tacos(07 of12)

Doritos Locos tacos were a big winner this year, becoming Taco Bell's best-selling product ever. It sold about 100 million in roughly 10 weeks, and its popularity hasn't dimmed yet. (credit:Doritos)

Burger King's "Premium Kuro Burger"(08 of12)

Colored hamburger buns are the new big trend abroad, it would seem. Burger King Japan is the latest to join the ranks of alternative-color buns with its "Premium Kuro Burger," which aptly translates to "Black Burger." The buns are colored with bamboo charcoal that's mixed into the dough. The ketchup is black, too -- it's flavored with squid ink. (credit:Burger King)

Wendy's Decadent Lobster And Caviar Offerings(09 of12)

Wendy's Japan brings us two offerings you'd scarce believe are on a fast food menu: the Lobster Surf & Turf Burger and the Premium Caviar & Lobster sandwich. The Lobster & Caviar sandwich features both claw meat and lobster salad topped with a mustardy mayonnaise and sprinkled with caviar. The Surf & Turf Burger is a classic Wendy's burger topped with whole pieces of Canadian lobster. (credit:Wendy's)

Burger King's Bacon Sundae(10 of12)

Bacon fever came to a head this summer with Burger King's bacon sundae, which although only a limited-time offering, earned a permanent place in our hearts and stomachs. (credit:Burger King)

Pizza Hut's "Kit Kat Pops"(11 of12)

Pizza Hut Middle East serves up an interesting dessert called "Kit Kat Pops," which look to be Kit Kat bars baked into sweet pizza dough. They come in a cheese variety, as well. (credit:Pizza Hut)

Pizza Hut's "Cone Crust Pizza"(12 of12)

As if Pizza Huts in the Middle Eastern didn't already serve enough over-the-top pizzas, the chain now serves "Cone Crust Pizza." The pie features Parmesan-crusted dough cones where a normal crust should be. The cones come stuffed in either Philadelphia cream cheese or honey mustard chicken. (credit:Pizza Hut)
