- In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add buttermilk, eggs, butter, and vanilla; mix in until just combined.
- Fill each donut pan cavity about 2/3 full. Do not overfill.

- Let donuts cool in pan 5 minutes before removing the donuts to a wire rack to cool.
- For chocolate glaze, whisk together the sugar and cocoa powder in a medium bowl.

- Dip the top of the donuts into the glaze and place on the wire rack to let the glaze set up.
Notes
- All-purpose flour: It's important to properly measure the flour. Either weigh the ingredients (click on "metric" directly underneath the ingredients) or be sure to sift the flour before lightly spooning into a measuring cup and level.
- Buttermilk: If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a homemade substitute with this homemade buttermilk substitute recipe.
- Vanilla extract: Feel free to increase the amount of vanilla extract for more vanilla flavor.
- Milk: You may need to add more milk to make the frosting the correct consistency. Half-and-half or cream could also be used.
