• FOR THE DONUTS:
• 1-½ cup Flour
• ½ cups Dark Cocoa Powder
• 1 cup Sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
• ½ teaspoons Nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Buttermilk

Preparation Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325ºF. Spray a donut pan with cooking spray.

In a medium-sized bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients.

In a separate bowl, add the buttermilk, eggs and vanilla. Beat them together and add them to the dry ingredients.

Add the melted butter to the batter and mix until a batter has formed.

Spoon or pipe the batter into the donut pan and bake at 325ºF for 10 minutes.

Turn the donuts out onto a cooling rack and let the donuts cool.

While the donuts are baking, make the glaze by whisking all the glaze ingredients together.

When the donuts have cooled, dip them into the glaze. (I triple dunked them!)
