These donuts are fluffy but moist and packed with chocolate flavour. A rich batter, dotted with chocolate chunks, and covered in a silky chocolate frosting take these donuts to the next level. If that's not enough chocolate for you, add a sprinkle of chocolate shavings to really make these shine.

These are really yummy! The frosting refused to thicken, so I added some more melted chocolate chips, which then caused the frosting to thicken too much. π€ I had to spread it on the donuts with spoon, but it still tasted excellent. Next time I will be more patient and wait longer for the frosting to thicken on its own so I can actually dip the donuts in it. π

Aww weβre so glad the donuts still turned out delicious, Terhi! and honestly, spooning the frosting on sounds like a perfectly acceptable strategy π€ in case it helps for next time, the glaze usually thickens naturally as it cools. You could try popping the bowl in the fridge for a couple of minutes, stirring every so often, to help speed things up a bit π₯°

I dont have a donut pan, can i do it in a muffin try or something different?

Hiii D. B! We haven't tried it, although we imagine you could βΊοΈ The original recipe for 12 donuts should make about 12 muffins. I reckon they may take a little longer to bake, so just keep an eye on them and checking for doneness by using a toothpick inserted into the center. Let us know how it goes if you try π«Ά
