I love donuts. I mean, if you go onto my recipe page you will see I have a section just for donuts! I definitely enjoy the yeast donuts that are fried, however sometimes you just don’t have all day to make donuts. Sometimes you want a chocolate donut, within the hour.
Well, you’ve come to the right place. Because I feel the same way. So I made donuts, and within the hour they were ready to eat (okay, some were eaten). I hope you enjoy them as much as my kids did (yes, me too).
Chocolate Donuts (Baked)
by Shugary Sweets
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients (10 donuts)
FOR THE DONUTS:
- 2 cup flour
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp milk
- 2 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 Tbsp butter, melted
FOR THE FROSTING:
- 1 Tbsp heavy cream
- 1 Tbsp milk
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp corn syrup
- 1 oz bittersweet chocolate
- 1 oz semi sweet chocolate morsels
- 1 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
For the donuts, mix dry ingredients in bowl. Beat in the eggs, milk, vanilla and butter. Beat until well blended.
Spray donut pan with cooking spray. Fill each donut cup about 3/4 full (I use a ziploc with the corner snipped to do this neatly). Fills about 8-10 donuts.
Bake donuts in 325 degree oven for about 10 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, remove from pan.
While cooling, make chocolate glaze. In small saucepan on medium low heat, mix together the cream, milk, butter, vanilla and corn syrup. When butter is completely melted, turn heat to low and add in the chocolate. Remove from heat and whisk in the powdered sugar.
Dip each donut into the glaze, allow to cool. (optional- sprinkle with toppings). Allow chocolate to set (about 15 minutes). Enjoy!

I baked these the other night with my kids and they were a HIT!!
Two thumbs up all around.
I hope you don’t mind but I’ve posted the recipe on my blog and also added a link back to your original recipe. Thanks again for a great recipe.
These look amazing! I’m picky with donuts – chocolate cake and blueberry cake donuts are the only kind I really like. I bet these would be amazing with a pumpkiny glaze on top!
Stopping by from This Chick Cooks (a little late!)
Well… I bought myself a donut pan and made these great doughnuts…They were great, notice I said “were” because they are all gone! Thank you for the recipe.
@ Scsanders82- So glad you enjoyed them!
The donuts are the best! I shared them with the boys, and with people at work, and they all were blown away. Thanks for sharing such an awesome recipe with us!
Glad you enjoyed them!
Great blog.
I have been making doughnuts with my doughnut pan for awhile and I have tried several recipes. All have tasted pretty good, but they all just seem to be cupcakes in the shape of doughnuts. So obivioiulsy, they taste good, but not really like a doughnut.
Anyone else agree?
I will try this recipe to see
I’m making these for a party this weekend, they look great! Can they be made a day ahead?!
Just made these this morning in a mini version for my son and my niece! They were in HEAVEN! I didn’t have heavy cream so I used Vanilla Caramel Coffee Creamer and I used Milk Chocolate Chips. They are amazing! Thank you so much for the inspiration! =0)
Nikki,
I’m so glad you enjoyed them! I love that you used coffee creamer, I’ve done that too! YUM.
How could I replace the eggs to make them vegan? Any suggestions would be great:)
I’ve heard that you can replace eggs with bananas or applesauce in a pinch. You could try that?!
Love your blog!
This will be the first recipe I’ll try and I am excited to do so.
What type or flour should I use for this? Cake Flour or All-Purpose Flour?
Thanks!
-Trish
Hi Trish,
Use all purpose flour! ENJOY!
Thanks so much, Aimee.
I will try your recipe tomorrow and will let you know how it turns out. Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes and ideas to so many.
I tried your recipe today and it did not disappoint. Its really a good base recipe. Cakey but moist. Thank you!!!
- Trish
WOOOOooOo
I spent the whole day looking for a baked Doughnut recipe to use in my new doughnut pan
and now I find this while I was looking totally for something else
am trying this tomorrow for sure
thanks a lot

I just made these and they are FABULOUS!! Thanks for sharing, Ill definitely be following you now since we share a love of donuts
I made these today and they were absolutely disgusting. It was a waste of ingredients and after taking one bite of the hard little rocks I threw the rest out. Stick with dunkin donuts and don’t waste your time!
I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy the chocolate donuts. I wonder if maybe there was a mistake in reading the ingredients? I’ve been making these for a couple years (as have many others) with no problems!
aimee @ shugarysweets recently posted..Peanut Butter Cake
