Ingredients
  

Chocolate donuts

  • 1 ¼ cup all purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 cup milk may use soy milk for dairy free
  • 1/4 cup melted butter may use plant based for dairy free
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract

Chocolate Glaze

  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 teaspoons light corn syrup

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly grease donut pans and set aside.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, sift the dry ingredients: flour, granulated sugar, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk well so no ‘dry pebbles’ are left.
  • Add the milk, melted butter and vanilla extract.
  • Stir well with a spoon, so no lumps remain.
  • Spoon into a ziploc bag, and seal. Snip a small corner and squeeze batter into donut pan, evenly distributing batter about 3/4 of the way full.
  • Bake 9-11 minutes until set (internal temperature should be around 200F), tops will spring back and toothpick will come out clean.
  • Let sit in pan for 2-5 minutes then remove to a wire cooling rack, face side down. Cool completely before glazing.
  • Prepare the chocolate glaze
  • In a microwave safe bowl, add the chocolate chips, butter and corn syrup. Heat for 20-30 seconds or until completely melted. Stir well until all ingredients are combined and have formed a smooth glaze.
  • Dip the tops of the donuts evenly into the glaze. If desired, add sprinkles while glaze is still wet. Allow to cool again, I like to place in the fridge to solidify faster.
