Glazed Chocolate Donuts

My hands down, favorite kind of donut is glazed chocolate. Dunkin Donuts does a great job with these. But now, I can too. And so can you! And these are baked, so you don't have to feel guilty about eating one, or two. I made these for Valentine's treats this year and they received tons of accolades from everyone. I can't wait to make them again!

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder,

chocolate chips,

and baking soda. In a small bowl, beat together the vanilla, egg, sour cream,

milk, and oil. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry

until just combined. Spoon into a greased donut pan.

Bake for 8 minutes or until the tops spring back when you touch them.

Let the donuts cool in the pan for 3-4 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

For the glaze, in a small saucepan over low heat, combine the sugar, milk, and vanilla

until well combined and barely simmering. Remove from the heat.

I like to transfer the glaze to a shallow bowl. And then I line my counter with paper towels under a wire rack, just for ease of clean up.

Dunk the donuts in the glaze

to fully coat them and then let any excess drip off.

Place on a wire rack to set the glaze.

Yummy, yum, yum!
