Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make donuts with chocolate glaze in the oven? Prepare the products for making donuts. Remove the egg and butter from the refrigerator in advance, they should become room temperature. This is important when preparing yeast dough, so that yeast actively works and raises it. If the products are cold (or, conversely, hot), the yeast is not activated, or it will die.
Step 2:
Preheat the milk to a warm state, it should be pleasantly warm, but not hot, so as not to kill a living organism - yeast. Pour the yeast into the milk and leave for 10 minutes. This is not a sourdough, yeast is not activated and will not start working, it is only necessary for their dissolution. To activate, you need sugar!
Step 3:
Beat an egg into the milk, add sugar, add salt and vanilla. Stir with a whisk.
Step 4:
Sift all the flour into the milk mixture. Sifting flour saturates it with air, which makes baking softer and more airy.
Step 5:
Start kneading the dough - mix the mass with a spoon.
Step 6:
Put the soft butter. And start kneading with your hands. At first, the dough will be sticky, but gradually it will become smooth, homogeneous and will stop sticking to everything. It will take about 10 minutes. In the process, I needed a little flour over the norm, but literally a couple of tablespoons. The gramming here is quite accurate, but there may be nuances. At the bottom there is a link to an article about flour, look at it.
Step 7:
When the dough finally falls behind the walls, assemble it into a ball. Cover the bowl with the dough with a towel, lid or film and leave to come up for about an hour.
Step 8:
After an hour, the dough should double in size. If suddenly this does not happen for you, give the test a little more time, about half an hour. If the dough has not risen after that, then your yeast has not been activated (this can happen for many reasons).
Step 9:
Put the dough that has come up on the work surface, dusted with flour. Next comes the donut formation stage. You can roll out the dough into a layer and cut out the donuts with a glass, and then, in the center, with a glass. This way you will get more neat donuts, but you will have a lot of extra dough. I chose a more economical way. I divided the dough into equal parts, and then rolled each into a ball. I got 16 pieces.
Step 10:
Take the blank and make a hole in the center, stretching and forming the future donut.
Step 11:
Place the donuts on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Cover with a towel and leave for 20 minutes. During this time, the future baking will be separated, which will make it more lush and tender.
Step 12:
Bake donuts in the oven preheated to 190 ° C for 15-20 minutes, top-bottom mode. The photo shows that with this method of formation, the hole in the middle has practically disappeared, since the donuts have grown very much during baking.
Step 13:
While the donuts are cooling, prepare the glaze. Take the groceries for her.
Step 14:
Put sugar and cocoa in a saucepan, pour milk over them. Put on a small fire and, with constant stirring, wait for the sugar and cocoa to dissolve. Put the butter in a saucepan.
Step 15:
Continue to heat the mixture to a hot state, but do not boil it, the oil may separate the whey. Stir until smooth, and then cool well.
Step 16:
Dip the cooled donuts with a fork with one side into the glaze. Decorate the top as desired. I sprinkled pastry sprinkles.
We really liked the donuts! Especially fresh, freshly baked. The dough is like fluff, soft, tender, airy. That's just without holes in the middle. But this did not affect their taste in any way.
Be sure to cool the glaze well, it will become thick and it will be easier to work with it.
