Ingredients
Scale
Donuts
- 1 can flaky large biscuits
Chocolate Ganache Glaze
- 2/3 cup chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- Optional: sprinkles or decorative toppings
Instructions
- Prepare the Biscuits: Remove the biscuits from the can and separate them. Place the biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet to prevent sticking.
- Cut Donut Holes: Using a 1-inch circle cookie cutter, carefully cut a hole out of the center of each biscuit to form the donut shape.
- Air Fry the Donuts: Arrange 4 donuts in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Close the air fryer and cook at 350°F for 5 minutes, flipping the donuts halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- Make the Chocolate Ganache Glaze: While the donuts are cooking, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream in a small bowl. Microwave the mixture for 30 seconds, then stir. If the chocolate isn’t fully melted, microwave for an additional 20-30 seconds until smooth. Stir and set aside.
- Glaze the Donuts: Once the donuts are cooked and slightly cooled, dip each donut into the warm chocolate ganache glaze, coating thoroughly.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Place the glazed donuts back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Optionally, sprinkle with colorful sprinkles or golden Wilton stars. Serve immediately to enjoy the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer; cook donuts in batches if necessary.
- Microwave times may vary; adjust accordingly to fully melt the chocolate without burning.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and use dairy-free chocolate chips.
- Use parchment paper to prevent donuts from sticking to the baking sheet or air fryer basket.
- Serve donuts fresh for the best taste and texture; glaze may harden over time.
