Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg, at room temperature
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup milk (I used chocolate almond milk, but regular cow's milk will work fine)
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup heavy cream (more if needed)
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F).
- Lightly grease a doughnut pan; set aside.
- In a large bowl whisk together the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl whisk together the wet ingredients, then gently pour them into the dry ones. Fold ingredients together until just combined.
- Spoon mixture into prepared doughnut pan, and bake for 10-11 minutes, or until the doughnuts spring back when lightly pressed. Be careful not to over bake here!
- Allow doughnuts to cool a few minutes in the pan before transferring to a doughnut pan to cool completely.
- While your doughnuts are cooling, make your ganache!
- Sift together the sugar, salt, and cocoa powder. Add cream and whisk until smooth, adding more cream - one tablespoon at a time - if needed to reach a thick but spreadable consistency.
- Using a butter knife spread the ganache generously over the tops of each donut, then top with sprinkles. EAT!
