Chocolate Doughnut Glaze
A sweet chocolate icing that dries to a smooth shiny finish - perfect for dipping!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine
- 1/4 cup whole milk or milk alternative
- 1 Tbsp light corn syrup
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 4 oz bittersweet or dark chocolate chopped
- 2 cups icing sugar sifted
Instructions
- In a saucepan combine butter, milk, corn syrup, and vanilla over medium heat stirring until butter is melted. Reduce heat to low, add the chocolate, and stir until smooth.
- Remove from heat and quickly whisk in icing sugar until smooth. If too thick, add a bit more milk until mixture is thin enough to dip (rewarm mixture over stove if necessary).
- Invert a doughnut into the dip, pressing until it's halfway covered, lift up taking care not to drip down the side. Place on a wire rack for 1-2 hours to allow the glaze to set and harden. While dipping, if glaze is setting up too fast in saucepan, return to heat for a few minutes to soften, or place saucepan over a bowl of hot water.
