Ingredients
Donut Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (See Note 1 Below)
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 2 eggs lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 2 cups flour sifted
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- non-stick spray
Frosting Ingredients
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 to 3 tablespoons milk (See Note 2 Below)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray the molds with non-stick spray and set them aside.
- In a large bowl, add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix until combined.
- Add the milk, eggs, vanilla, and butter to the dry ingredients. Beat until combined. Do not over mix.
- Fill each pan cavity with about 2⁄3 full, so they do not overflow. My suggestion is to use the plastic bottle for a cleaner and more even filling, or you can also use the piping bag.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the top of the donuts bounces when you touch. Let them cool in the pan 5 minutes before removing.
- To make the frosting, combine the powdered sugar and vanilla. Then add the milk in little by little and food coloring if you are using it. You need it to be runny but not so much that it drips off. It should have a thick consistency.
- You may use a piping bag or the plastic squeeze bottle to add the frosting. Pipe the icing clockwise and leave them to set.
- Melt your chocolate in 20 second bursts in the microwave or on the stove over a pan of hot water. Once melted, add a few drops of food coloring and mix well.
- Place your donuts on parchment paper and drizzle a bit of melted chocolate into the pattern of your choice
- Add sprinkles and edible glitter to your drizzled icing right away before it hardens.
- Note: The consistency of the icing can be adjusted by adding in extra milk or powdered sugar depending on if it is too thick or too thin.

- Prevent Donuts From Sticking. Be sure to spray cooking spray or grease the donut pan before adding the batter.
- Prevent Misshapen Donuts. Be sure to not overfill the pan so the donuts don't rise too much and become misshapen.
- Prevent Messy Baking. Use a bottle or piping bag to pipe in the batter for the pan. This makes it less messy.
- Best Frosting Consistency. The consistency of the frosting can be adjusted by adding in extra milk or powdered sugar depending on if it is too thick or too thin.
- Best Flavor. Use high quality pure vanilla for the best flavor.
