Crafting Chocolate Baked Donuts
Follow these steps to create delightful chocolate-baked donuts:
Step 1: Mixing the Dry Ingredients
- Combine all starred (★) ingredients and sift them together.
Step 2: Preparing Chocolate Mix
- Place the listed chocolate (●) in a heat-resistant container. Loosely wrap it and heat it in a 500W microwave for 1 minute. Mix thoroughly to completely melt the chocolate.
Step 3: Blending the Batter
- Whisk together the beaten eggs and milk. Add this mixture to the sifted dry ingredients in a bowl. Mix gently with a whisk, being careful not to overmix. Once it's no longer powdery, add the melted chocolate and blend until the dough is thoroughly mixed.
Step 4: Baking the Donuts
- Pour the batter into a preheated donut maker using a piping bag fitted with a nozzle. Bake until the indicator light turns off. As the batter is slightly loose, immediately turn the nozzle upwards after pouring the batter.
Freshly baked, these chocolate donuts boast a crispy exterior, with a soft and moist interior, loved by kids and adults alike!
Creating Double Chocolate Donuts

Step 2: Chocolate Coating
- Pierce the back of each baked donut with a fork and dip it into the melted chocolate. Gently turn it, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
Step 3: Adding Crunch
- While the chocolate is still in a semi-liquid state, sprinkle chocolate crunch on the donuts if desired.
Step 4: Setting the Chocolate
- Allow the chocolate to harden by quickly placing the donuts in the refrigerator. No wrapping is required.
