Instructions

Chocolate Donuts

Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease donut pans with cooking spray. This recipe makes roughly 9-10 donuts.
Add oil, white sugar, and brown sugar to a mixing bowl and whisk together until combined. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract, then whisk in the milk.
Add flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, and baking soda to the bowl and mix until combined. Do not over mix. Stir in the crushed Oreo cookie crumbs.
Fill the donut cavities ½ way full with batter. I recommend squeezing the batter out of a ziploc bag to make it easier. To do this, add the batter into the ziploc bag, then cut the corner off of the bag and pipe the batter into it.
Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until the donuts spring back when you gently press your finger into them or a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for a few minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Place a large baking sheet under the wire rack (or a piece of parchment paper), to avoid making a mess once the donuts are glazed.

Oreo Glaze

Add all the glaze ingredients (minus the Oreos), into a shallow bowl and whisk until smooth, adding more icing sugar as needed. Whisk in the Oreo crumbs.
Dip each completely cooled donut into the glaze to coat the top. Add Oreo crumbs and small pieces of Oreos for decoration, then let sit until the glaze has set. Enjoy!

Notes

Please Note: I highly recommend using a kitchen scale to weigh your dry ingredients. Metric measurements are found above, under the "Metric" tab.

Measuring flour and cocoa powder: Properly measure your flour and cocoa powder using the scoop and level method or a kitchen scale.

Storage Instructions: If you've ever bought a box of donuts and tried to eat them the next day, you'll know they, by nature, don't last very long. They are best enjoyed the day they're baked but you can store them for up to 2 days in an airtight container at room temperature if needed. Note that the glaze may start to melt depending on the climate where you live.
