Ingredients

Donuts:

1 (7.5 oz.) Coca-Cola Mini Can
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup high-quality cocoa powder
3/4 cup light brown sugar, loosely packed
3/4 tsp. baking powder
3/4 tsp. baking soda
3/4 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. espresso powder
1 large egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 tsp. apple cider vinegar
4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted

Glaze:

1 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup milk

Directions

Donuts:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease 2 standard sized 6-count donut pans; set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and espresso powder. Whisk well, making sure there are no lumps left from the brown sugar. Add egg, Coca-Cola, vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar and melted butter. Whisk until well combined.
Spoon batter into a gallon-sized bag and snip a small piece off one corner. Use the bag to pipe the batter into the donut pans, filling each approximately 3/4 full.
Bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.Allow donuts to cool in the pans for 5 minutes. Then remove to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

Glaze:

While the donuts are cooling, prepare the glaze by melting the chocolate chips and milk in a double boiler. Whisk until smooth.
Dip the tops of the cooled donuts in the glaze. Set on a wire cooling rack and allow the glaze to set (if desired) or serve immediately. Enjoy!
