Donuts With Chocolate Topping – Recipe from Yummiest Food Cookbook (2024)

February 7, 2016 By Yummiest Food 48 Comments

Very easy, fantastic, quick, perfectly soft and their smell and taste are incredible, donuts with chocolate topping!

Very easy and soft donuts with chocolate topping, and their taste will leave you speechless! You can cover them with powdered sugar, or with chocolate topping, which is my choice for today. Sweet for anyone who doesn’t like to spend too much time in the kitchen.

Today, I make donuts with my children, real sweet pastime, but I am scared that there won’t be enough donuts, because my children eat them immediately. Enjoy with your family in good and delicious food! Quick and so tasty donuts everybody love, and they are finish for a few minutes. For the topping, I make simple chocolate glaze. When the glaze cools off, your children can eat donuts and you don’t have to worry about the mess! You can serve them with any other topping you want, but today my choice are donuts with chocolate topping!

  You can bake donuts on 350F in the oven for 6-10 minutes. Bake until donuts are a light golden brown.

you said yes you melt the chocolate chips in microwave and that is it. How many minutes? Really the glaze is the type of glaze I have been looking for. All the glaze for donuts I have come across
hasn’t been just chocolate chip. So you say only chocolate chip?

  Hi, these are the instructions: 1 cup chocolate chip, heat chocolate chips by microwaving for 30 seconds stirring and repeating until melted. Allow to cool for 2-3 minutes. Dip top of donut in chocolate glaze.

Are these the exact picture of the donuts you made or a stock picture? That glaze doesn’t look like just plain melted chocolate chips. It’s been thinned out probably with shortening or similar.
