Ingredients

  • oil for brushing
  • 1 cup (250 ml) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (125 ml) granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup (50 ml) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ tsp (2 ml) baking soda
  • ¼ tsp (1 ml) salt
  • ½ cup (125 ml) sour cream
  • ¼ cup (50 ml) canola oil
  • 1 egg
  • ½ tbsp (7 ml) milk
  • glaze
  • 1½ cups (375 ml) powdered sugar
  • ¼ cup (50 ml) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup (50 ml) milk
  • 1 tsp (4 ml) vanilla

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Brush the Donut Pan with oil.
  2. For the donuts, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and whisk until just combined.
  3. Fill a large decorating bag with dough and pipe around each well until it’s about ¾ full. Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the donuts spring back when lightly pressed. Remove from the oven to a Stackable Cooling Rack. Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes before releasing. Cool completely.
  4. For the glaze, whisk together all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Place a sheet of parchment paper under the cooling rack. Spread the glaze evenly over the tops of the donuts. Let the donuts stand until the glaze sets.
