Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Prepare the chocolate cake dough as directed, but replace the vanilla specified with 1½ tablespoons of the brewed espresso. Mix until the dough comes together, then let it rest as directed.
-
Step 2.
While the dough rests, prepare the chocolate glaze as directed, replacing the vanilla specified with the remaining ½ tablespoon of brewed espresso. Stir until smooth and set aside.
-
Step 3.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about ½-inch thickness. Cut into doughnut shapes using a doughnut cutter or two round cutters. Gather and re-roll scraps as needed.
-
Step 4.
Heat oil in a deep fryer or large heavy pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the doughnuts in batches, about 1-2 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a wire rack to drain and cool slightly.
-
Step 5.
While the doughnuts are still warm, dip the tops into the prepared chocolate glaze, allowing excess to drip off. Place glazed doughnuts on a rack to set, about 10 minutes, before serving.
