Dark Chocolate Donuts
Does anybody even care that it's Groundhog's day? Why are we not all celebrating by eating hot dogs? Did everyone realize without me that ground hog is actually disgusting?
Or am I supposed to be watching the Superbowl? I might be from Colorado but the second grade bully used to wear Bronco's jerseys basically every day so they've been my nemesis for awhile now. I just can't support that kind of thing. Plus horses have never been my favorite.
Can we just talk donuts instead?
A baked donut will never be a fried donut. But that doesn't mean they can't be delicious. Mentally prepare yourself for a little round cake with a hole in the center, instead of a crispy fried donut and these will wow you. These are SO easy and only take 30 minutes from start to finish. This is the kind of treat you can whip up on a whim and not have to spend the entire day cleaning the kitchen afterwards.
The donuts themselves are dark and not super sweet, so the ganache glaze compliments them perfectly. I tried to put a clear glaze on a few and there was an uproar. Point taken.
If you have kids they love to decorate their own donuts. Read: They like to dump as many bottles of sprinkles as they can on top of their donuts.
