CHOCOLATE OLD-FASHIONED DONUTS

Steps:

• First, make the donuts: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt and nutmeg until well combined.
• In a separate large bowl using an electric hand mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat granulated sugar and butter on medium speed just until mixture appears sandy, about 1 minute. Beat in egg yolks on medium speed until mixture is light and thickened, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add flour mixture in three additions, alternating with sour cream, beating after each addition until batter is well-combined.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 1 hour, up to 4 hours, until batter is slightly firm.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a large pot or deep saucepan with a deep-fry thermometer attached. Heat oil to 325°F.* On a very well-floured surface using a well-floured rolling pin, roll dough out to 1/2-inch thickness. Use a well-floured donut cutter or two different-sized biscuit cutters to cut dough into approximately 16 to 18 donuts and donut holes (re-roll scraps once, if needed).
• Fry donuts in batches, about three at a time, 2 minutes each side or until puffed and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon or deep fry skimmer to transfer cooked donuts to a paper bag or paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain excess oil. Repeat with remaining donuts and donut holes.
• Next, make the glaze: In a small saucepan over low heat, heat milk to just below a simmer (when it begins to steam). Remove from heat; whisk in powdered sugar, pinch salt and vanilla until smooth. Use a fork to carefully dunk donuts one at a time into glaze, coating both sides. Lift to allow excess glaze to drip off donut, then transfer to a cooling rack with parchment or paper towel underneath to catch excess glaze. Allow donuts to sit until glaze is fully set, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Donuts are best served the day they're made, but will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Steps:

• Doughnuts:.
• In large bowl whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Using an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment beat eggs until light in color and well combined, about a minute, add the sugar, butter, and buttermilk and beat until smooth. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and mix until just combined, do not overmix.
• Add the flour mixture and continue to mix just until dough comes together.
• Lightly flour a work surface and roll dough to 1/2-inch thick. Using a flour dipped 3-inch round cutter, cut out doughnuts. Use a flour dipped 1/2-inch round cutter to cut centers. (reserve centers for doughnut holes) Transfer cut doughnuts to a flour-dusted baking sheet.
• Top a cooling rack with a layer of paper towels, and place over a rimmed sheet tray. Attach a deep-frying thermometer to the side of large heavy-bottomed pot or dutch oven, heat 2-inches of oil, over medium-high, to 375°F Add doughnuts to the oil, being careful not to overcrowd, fry until doughnuts float to the surface of the oil, then continue to fry until golden about two minutes more. Turn doughnuts over and fry until the other side is golden, 30 to 60 seconds. Drain on paper towels.
• Glaze:.
• In a small saucepan over low warm milk to a simmer. Pour warm milk into a medium heatproof bowl. Whisk in confectioners sugar, vanilla and salt until smooth and glossy. Place bowl over a pot of simmering water until thin and smooth, about 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Using your fingers, or tongs fully submerge each doughnut in the glaze. Place each glazed doughnut on a cooling rack placed over a baking sheet. Allow glaze to dry for at least 1 hour. Serve within a day.
