Print Ingredients Baked Chocolate Donuts 3/4 cup flour 1/4 cup cocoa powder 1 Tbsp. cornstarch 1/2 cup sugar 1 tablespoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 egg 1/2 cup milk 1 teaspoon vanilla 4 tablespoons vegetable oil Chocolate Frosting I like using this chocolate ganache recipe You could also use store-bought frosting and warm it for dipping White Frosting for Piping Store-bought frosting is perfect for this If you prefer homemade, here is my favorite vanilla buttercream Instructions Bake the Donuts Preheat the oven to 450ºF. Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, corn starch, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the egg, milk, vanilla, and vegetable oil. Mix until smooth batter forms. Pour batter into a large piping bag (I usually use a gallon sized zip top bag). Generously and thoroughly grease a donut baking tin with nonstick cooking spray. Snip the corner of the bag and pipe the batter into the tins, filling each about 3/4 full. (My donut pan only bakes 6 donuts at a time, so I typically overfill each one just a bit or I have a little batter left over-- which I will sometimes use to make a few mini donuts in my mini pan). Bake for 7-8 minutes until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let donuts cool in pan for about 10 minutes, until pan is cool enough to handle. Invert donuts onto a wire rack for complete cooling. Frost the Donuts Dip each donut in warm ganache or frosting. Let excess drip off using a cooling rack with a piece of parchment or wax paper underneath. Pipe on the Spider Webs Fill a piping bag with about 1/3 cup of white frosting. As shown in the video, pipe lines across the donuts and connect each line with a curve to create a spider web.
