Servings: 9
Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 package Carnation Breakfast Chocolate Malt Drink Mix
- 2 tsp cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips or broken up/crushed pieces of chocolate
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 6 tbsp sour cream
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2 heaping tbsp canola oil
For the Topping
- powdered sugar
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, stir the flour, sugar, drink mix powder, cocoa powder, chocolate chips, and baking soda until evenly incorporated.
- In separate, medium sized bowl, whisk the vanilla, egg, sour cream, milk, and oil together until the mixture's smooth and completely incorporated.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the mixing bowl, and mix on low speed until just combined.
- Transfer the batter into a ziplocking bag. Snip off one end, and pipe the batter into the greased and floured donut pan, stopping below the rim to allow for expansion.
- Bake at 375 degrees for about 8 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Set aside the pan of cooked donuts, and let them cool completely before removing from the pan.
- Transfer the cooled donuts to a serving tray. Add a handful of powdered sugar to a sifter and gently shake the sifter out over top of the donuts, until the desired amount of sugar coating has settled.
- Serve the donuts with a glass of cold milk and enjoy.
