Directions
Tim Horton’s Style Chocolate Cake Doughnuts, This is a copycat recipe for the Chocolate Cake Doughnuts served in Canada and Northern US This includes a Mocha glaze but you can top it with anything you wish – try the chocolate glaze from the Boston Creme Doughnut recipe Recipe does not include chilling time , Exactly like the real thing from Tim Hortons I made a glaze recipe from Taste of Home, and the fondant type chocolate icing recommended in the recipe, from the Boston Cream donuts I also dipped some of the glazed ones into coconut – I should have dipped them top and bottom, to make them like the white coconut donuts Tim Hortons used to make , Horrible recipe The dough was too sticky Even after chilling it, I could not cut them out I ended up adding a lot more flour to the dough, just so I could the doughnuts out After frying, the doughnuts were flat and tasteless Would not recommend this recipe
