How to Make Chocolate Chip Donuts
Mix all the ingredients together for the donut batter. For this recipe I’d suggest using mini chocolate chips as they are size appropriate for the donuts but if you only have normal size they would work too.
Fill up each donut pan spot about 90% of the way. I always clean off the donut pan hole part as it will bake a cleaner donut.
Bake in the oven until they are lightly golden brown, about 10 minutes. You will see how fluffy they are!
Allow the donuts to cool completely while you make the chocolate frosting. Dunk each donut into the frosting or spread with a knife on top. Finally, add a couple more chocolate chips on top!
Each donut has just the perfect amount of chocolate and your heart is going to melt when you bite into a donut and taste that it’s filled with chocolate chips!
I hope you enjoy these Chocolate Chip Donuts!
