A friend of mine made these and posted this picture
on Facebook. Seems her husband said they were
better than Dunkin Donuts...even
without the frosting!
I plan to make them this weekend.
Doughnuts
Yield: 12
2/3 cup cocoa
1 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups lightly packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 large eggs
3/4 cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons white vinegar
1 stick (8 tablespoons) melted butter
Chocolate icing
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons milk or half & half
2/3 cup cocoa
1 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups lightly packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 large eggs
3/4 cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons white vinegar
1 stick (8 tablespoons) melted butter
Chocolate icing
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons milk or half & half
Directions:
To make the doughnuts:
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease the wells
of two standard doughnut pans. In a large mixing bowl,
whisk together the cocoa, flour, sugar, baking powder,
baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips.
In a large measuring cup or medium-sized mixing bowl,
whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla and vinegar.
Add the wet ingredients, along with the melted butter
to the dry ingredients, stirring until well combined.
Remove the batter to a zip-top plastic bag or piping bag,
cut a hole in one corner, and pipe the batter into the
doughnut molds, filling them between 3/4 and full.
Bake the doughnuts for 12 to 15 minutes,
or until a toothpick inserted into the center of one
comes out clean. Remove the doughnuts from the oven
and let cool for 2 minutes.
Loosen their edges, turn the pan upside down over a rack,
and gently let the doughnuts fall onto the rack.
To make the icing:
Combine the chocolate chips and milk in a
microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup.
Heat until the milk is steaming and starting to bubble.
Remove from the microwave, and stir until the chips
have melted and the icing is smooth.
Dip the top of each doughnut in the icing;
or spread icing on the doughnuts.
I don't have a doughnut pan nor does my friend.

I don't have a doughnut pan...but I do have a mini-bundt pan. And now I have a recipe I just may have to try out. :)
ReplyDeleteI love doughnuts!! These look good.
ReplyDeleteThese sound yummy! Let us know how they turned out as I don't have either type of pan but wouldn't mind buying a mini bundt cake pan (it could get double duty - cakes and donuts) if that works.
ReplyDeleteThey look and sound delicious!
ReplyDeletelooks and sounds yummy!! thanks for sharing the recipe!!
ReplyDeleteYou inspired me and I ordered a pan. Do you have any more recipes for donuts besides the chocolate?
ReplyDeleteJMD...not yet, but now that I have the pan, I will be looking for some. I will post what find! Thanks for stopping by and for your sweet comment!
