Ingredients
For the Donuts
- 15.25 ounces vanilla cake mix (1 box)
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 large egg
- ⅓ cup unsalted butter melted (⅔ stick)
- ¾ cup buttermilk
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
For the Frosting
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- ¾ cup unsalted butter partially melted (1½ sticks)
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
For the Donuts
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray donut tins well with nonstick spray. Set aside. For 18 donuts, I used donut tins that make 3-inch-sized donuts.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the cake mix, nutmeg, egg, and butter together.
- Add in all of the buttermilk and beat on low until combined.
- Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips until mixed well.
- Place the donut batter into a large piping bag and pipe the batter into the wells of the donut tins. Fill each donut well up only ¾ of the way full so they have room to grow without overflowing.
- Bake in the oven for 15-16 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in a donut comes out clean.
- Cool for 15 minutes in the tin before removing from the tin to cool completely. Let cool completely before frosting.
For the Frosting
- In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, beat the powdered sugar, butter, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract together until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
- Pipe the icing over the cooled donuts.
Notes
- Storage: Store chocolate chip baked donuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
