Let's Prepare

Collect

Gather these ingredients - no prep needed yet.

  • 1 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp milk of choice or water
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Let's Cook

  1. Step 1.

    In a medium bowl, sift together 1½ cups (180 grams) confectioners' sugar and ¼ cup (27 grams) unsweetened natural cocoa powder to remove any lumps.

  2. Step 2.

    Slowly stir in 2 tablespoons milk of choice or water and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, adding the liquid a little at a time, until the glaze is smooth and pourable. You may not need all the milk; stop when the glaze reaches a consistency that coats the back of a spoon.

  3. Step 3.

    Dip the top of each doughnut into the glaze, then gently shake off any excess. Let the glazed doughnuts rest on a wire rack until the glaze sets, about 5 to 10 minutes.
