Ingredients
Chocolate Donuts:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup butter melted
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
Cherry Glaze:
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar sifted
- 3 tablespoons maraschino cherry juice from the jar of maraschino cherries
- 4 Maraschino cherries very finely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon cherry extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Generously spray a donut pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, brown sugar, baking soda and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together the sour cream, melted butter, vegetable oil and egg.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. The batter will be very thick - more like a dough than a batter.
- Transfer the batter to a ziplock bag. Cut the corner off and pipe the mixture into the donut pan, filling each about 1/2 full.
- Bake for about 8 minutes, until a tester inserted comes out clean. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before removing from the pan. (You may need to gently run a knife around the edges, but the donuts should come out fairly easy.)
- Let the donuts cool completely on a wire rack.
- To make the glaze, whisk the powdered sugar and cherry juice together until smooth. Mix in the chopped cherries and the cherry extract.
- To glaze the donuts, spoon the glaze over the tops of the donuts and allow the glaze to run down the sides. Add sprinkles, if desired.
Notes
- The donuts are a bit tender and will crumble if you handle them too much. They are too tender to dip into the glaze (they will fall apart!) so just spoon the glaze over the tops. They will firm up a bit the longer they sit.
