These sinfully decadent Devil’s Food Doughnuts would be perfect for any occasion, but with a dark chocolate ganache and festive sprinkles, they are ready for your next Halloween bash!

Yields: Makes Approximately 8 standard or 24 mini doughnuts

Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tbsp vinegar
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 large egg
  • For the ganache:
  • 6oz dark chocolate morsels/chunks
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 pinch sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla


Method
  1. Preheat oven to 175C degrees and grease your doughnut pan with cooking spray. Add vinegar and milk to a small bowl and let sit 5 minutes.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, both sugars, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt until well mixed. In a separate, larger bowl, whisk milk/vinegar mixture with egg, vegetable oil, and vanilla.
  3. Pour wet ingredient mixture over dry ingredient mixture and whisk until batter comes together smoothly. Pour batter into large ziploc/piping bag, snip off a corner, and pipe batter into prepared doughnut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 way full.
  4. Bake at 175 for 9-11 minutes or until doughnuts spring back when lightly pressed with a finger. Let cool in pan for a few minutes before gently removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
  5. While doughnuts cool, make the ganache: pour dark chocolate chips into a glass or stainless steel bowl. In a small saucepan, heat butter and cream over medium heat until boiling. Immediately pour mixture over dark chocolate; let sit 5 minutes and then whisk until smooth, adding the pinch of sugar and vanilla as you stir. Let sit an additional 5 minutes or until ganache is thickened but still glossy.
  6. Dip half of doughnut into the ganache; let excess drain off before sitting back on the cooling rack. Top with sprinkles.

Almond and Honey Brittle Ingredients 1/4 cup almond oil 4 cups sliced blanched almonds 2 cups sugar 1 cup honey 1/4 cup water Method Preheat the oven to 204C.

In a medium, very heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar, honey, and water and cook over medium-high heat until the sugar liquefies, then turns light golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. It should register 310 degrees Fahrenheit on a candy thermometer; this is referred to as the “hard-crack” stage. Do not stir, but brush the sugar crystals off the inside of the pan with a wet pastry brush as necessary. Once the sugar begins to brown (to the color of a football), remove the pan from the heat (watch very carefully, as the sugar can burn quickly).
