Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 tablespoons milk (for glaze)
  • Chocolate sprinkles (optional for decoration)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a doughnut pan to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
  3. Combine the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir in the cocoa powder until fully incorporated.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.
  5. Fill each doughnut cavity in the pan with the batter, about 3/4 full.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Cool the doughnuts in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
  8. Prepare the glaze by combining the powdered sugar with 2-3 tablespoons of milk. Stir until smooth.
  9. Dip the tops of the cooled doughnuts into the glaze, allowing excess to drip off.
  10. Add chocolate sprinkles if desired while the glaze is still wet.
  11. Set the doughnuts aside for a few minutes before serving.
