- Spoon the batter into the donuts cavities making sure to only fill them about 2/3 – 3/4 of the way full.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the donuts comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 5 minutes in the pan. Remove donuts from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
To make the glaze
- In a separate bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla, and milk. If the glaze is too thick, slowly add one tablespoon of milk at a time until it has reached your desired consistency.
- Dip the tops of the donuts into the glaze and transfer back to the wire rack to cool and allow the Chocolate glaze to harden. Top with sprinkles if desired.(optional as per your liking)
