Chocolate Pumpkin Cake Donuts
This is an easy, freshly baked Chocolate Pumpkin Cake Donut recipe with a chocolate glaze frosting. You just can’t get much better than that!

INGREDIENTS
- 1/3 cup + 1 Tbsp milk
- 1 teaspoon vinegar
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree or canned pumpkin
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 large egg
Glaze
- 3 tablespoons butter cut into 1/2 inch squares.
- ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips dark chocolate is my preferred type of chocolate chip
- 1 tablespoon corn syrup
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease 2 donut pans with cooking spray
- In a small cup, mix together milk and vinegar. Allow this to sit until it starts to curdle, about 5 minutes.
- Melt butter in a small bowl and set aside to cool.
- In a medium mixing bowl add together flours, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, sea salt, nutmeg, cloves, and cinnamon. Set aside.
- Whisk the pumpkin and honey into the curdled milk and beat until well combined. Add the egg and butter and whisk until combined.
- Mix together the wet and dry ingredients until just combined, make sure you don’t over mix, you want a fluffy donut, not a dense one.
- If you don’t have a piping bag, cut the corner of a Ziplock bag, add batter, and pipe the dough evenly into the prepared pans, about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 7 minutes, remove from oven and cool for 1 minute before you turn them over on to a cooling rack. Let the donuts cool on rack while you make the glaze.

Glaze
- In a double boiler combine butter, chocolate chips and corn syrup over medium heat. Stir until completely melted and well incorporated.
- Once glaze is done and donuts are cool, dip the tops of the donuts into the glaze and turn over, back onto the cooling rack. Glaze side up.
- Allow glaze to harden for 15-20 minutes or like our family prefers- serve them right away. Enjoy!
