- Cream the butter (crisco/sunflower margarine/vegetable oil) with the sugar and then, add 1 egg (avocado, banana or boiled sweet potato) at a time and continue to whisk till everything comes together.
- Squeeze a good amount Hershey's Chocolate Syrup in. The syrup can be substituted with melted chocolate bars. Just make sure your syrup or melted bar is 100% pure dark chocolate. Add the vanilla and whisk this for another minute.
- Add the flour slowly and gradually along with the baking powder. This step is entirely optional but if you want to, you can add mixed nuts and/or chocolate chips at this point to give the doughnut batter an extra crunch/flavor. Your batter should be silky and smooth like this.
- Pour into the greased pan/doughnut moulds and bake these for 3 minutes (if you're using the microwave). Adjust your temperature settings to your liking if you're either baking this in an electric oven or steaming it in a steamer. Cool them in room temperature the sooner they step out of the oven/steamer. Cut them with the doughnut cutter if you've baked it in a regular square pan. Drizzle extra chocolate syrup/melted chocolate on the top and it's done. Well… almost.
- Be creative and use any of the toppings mentioned on the recipe and give the doughnuts your own kind of makeover. Doughnuts with topping(s) stand out better than those that don't. Double or triple the recipe if you're sharing these with family or friends π€
These get even closer to the classic flavor with chocolate icing and sprinkles to make a delicious chocolate sprinkle doughnut. Cake doughnuts are my weakness, but KK is the only place I used to get 'em from - they used to have a blueberry cake doughnut but discontinued it - now all they have are the sourcough cake doughnuts - I'd do catrwheels if they had chocolate cake doughnuts - but I think I'm better off snagging some from you when I come to visit NYC. Cake doughnuts will sink to the bottom of the oil, then cook for a bit before rising up. Place the doughnuts on the prepared cooling rack. This is the closest I have ever gotten to store bought donuts.
