Ingredients
Flourless Chocolate Doughnuts
- 100 grams dark chocolate (about 2/3 cup heaping)
- 160 grams butter (11 tablespoons)
- 50 grams cocoa powder (about 1/2 cup)
- 150 grams granulated sugar (just under 3/4 cup)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 5 large eggs
Vanilla Glaze
- 2 cups confectioners sugar
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
- Melt 100 grams of dark chocolate and 160 grams of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat
- Once melted, add 50 grams of cocoa powder, 150 grams of granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and whisk to combine
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the eggs (one at a time) until all of the ingredients are fully incorporated
- Grease a doughnut pan and fill each cavity about 3/4 of the way full
- Bake at 350 degrees on a middle rack for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean from the thickest part of a doughnut
- Allow the pan to cool on a cooling rack and once it is cool enough to work with, transfer the doughnuts directly onto the cooling rack
- While the doughnuts are cooling, make the glaze by whisking together 2 cups of confectioners sugar with 1/4 cup of whole milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- Place a sheet of wax or parchment paper under the cooling rack to prepare for the glaze
- Dip the fully cooled doughnuts into the glaze and return them to the cooling rack while the glaze sets (about 15 minutes)
- Store at room temperature in an airtight container
