Questions about Chocolate doughnut
How should you warm a chocolate doughnut?
For a soft centre, microwave it for about 8–10 seconds, then check it; longer heating can make the dough tough and the chocolate very hot. To revive a slightly stale doughnut, warm it in an oven at 150 °C for 3–5 minutes.
Can you freeze chocolate doughnuts?
Yes. Freeze them in a single layer until firm, then seal in a freezer bag; thaw at room temperature for about an hour. Warm briefly in a low oven if you want the outside less soft.
How long does a chocolate doughnut keep?
Keep it in an airtight container at room temperature and eat it within a day or two, while the dough is still soft. Refrigeration tends to dry it out; freeze it if you need to keep it longer.
What goes well with a chocolate doughnut?
Coffee, tea or a glass of milk balances its sweet chocolate coating. For a dessert plate, serve it with fresh strawberries or raspberries, whose tartness cuts through the rich dough.
Is a chocolate doughnut the same as a chocolate cake doughnut?
Not necessarily: a chocolate doughnut often means a raised, yeast-leavened ring or filled doughnut with chocolate coating, while a chocolate cake doughnut is made from a cake-like batter and is usually denser. Recipes and bakery names can overlap.
Is a chocolate doughnut more energy-dense than a doughnut with chocolate glaze?
The chocolate doughnut has 407 kcal per 100 g, compared with 364 kcal per 100 g for a doughnut with chocolate glaze. The recipes and size of the topping affect the difference.
Can you make chocolate doughnuts at home without a deep fryer?
Yes: bake them in a greased doughnut tin, following a cake-doughnut recipe, then cool before dipping in melted chocolate. A baked doughnut is usually more cake-like than the light, yeasted kind sold fried.
How do you stop chocolate doughnuts sticking together in a box?
Arrange them in a single layer, with the chocolate coating fully set before closing the box. If you need to stack them, put baking paper between the layers so the glaze does not transfer.
