How to make it

How you'll know it's ready
The doughnuts are ready when they spring back lightly when touched and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Convection oven? (and if you don't have one)
If using a convection oven, reduce the temperature to 325°F (160°C) and check a few minutes early, as the fan may bake them faster.
Frosting, filling & glaze notes
The chocolate glaze should be smooth and shiny, coating the doughnuts evenly without dripping too quickly.
