Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ⅛ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup buttermilk
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• ½ teaspoon vanilla
• 3-4 tablespoons milk, or as needed

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a donut pan well with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
• In a separate bowl, mix together the buttermilk, sugar, egg, butter, and vanilla until well combined.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
• Spoon the batter into the donut cavities making sure to only fill them about ⅔ - ¾ of the way full.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the donut comes out clean.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 5 minutes in the pan. Remove donuts from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
• In a separate bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla, and milk. If the glaze is too thick, slowly add one tablespoon of milk at a time until it has reached your desired consistency.
• Dip the tops of the donuts into the glaze and transfer back to the wire rack to cool and allow the glaze to harden. Top with sprinkles if desired.
