TIPS FOR MAKING BAKED DEVIL’S FOOD CAKE DONUTS: You can make these in a muffin tin if you want, but go ahead and get a donut tin! They don’t cost much and you can get one like this in 2-days with Amazon Prime. Be sure to grease the tin liberally with nonstick cooking spray. This serves two functions: a) it allows an easy release of the donuts, and b) it actually gives the donuts a bit of a fried texture, just like your favorite bakery donuts! You can add a little more or less milk to the glaze than the recipe calls for to get it to the exact consistency you’re looking for. I like a thinner glaze, it tastes more like a bakery donut. WHAT’S MY FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS RECIPE? I love, love the vanilla butter glaze on these donuts. It’s amazing! And it hardens just a bit and creates this yummy, crackly outer layer with the soft donut underneath. SO GOOD.
