Ingredients
For the Chocolate Coconut Donuts:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract optional, adds flavor
- 1 egg large, at room temperature
- 2 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil melted, or unsalted butter melted
- 1/2 cup coconut milk or regular cow's milk
For the Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting:
- 3 ounces cream cheese very soft
- 3 tablespoons butter unsalted, very soft
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
- 1/4 teaspoon coconut extract
- 1 confectioners' sugar 1/2 cups, sifted
- 1-2 tablespoons coconut milk
- 1 cup coconut shredded, toasted, for decorating
Instructions
For the Chocolate Coconut Donuts:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F).
- Lightly grease a donut 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.
For the Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting:
- In the bowl of a stand-mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl using an electric handheld mixer, beat the cream cheese, butter, vanilla and coconut extracts on medium-high speed until completely smooth; about 2 minutes. Reduce the speed to low and gradually add the sifted confectioners' sugar. Add in the coconut milk. Once the milk is combined beat frosting on high-speed for 1-2 minutes.
To Toast the Coconut:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread coconut out in a single layer on a small baking sheet. Bake for 4-5 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Cool before using.
Assembly:
- Spread the frosting on top of each cooled donut then sprinkle with a few teaspoons of toasted coconut. Serve at once!
