Let's Cook

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.
