Ingredients

For the Donuts:

  • 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup + 2 tbsp brown sugar, packed
  • 3/4 cup + 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 and 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp espresso powder Optional, it enhances the chocolate flavor
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup full fat plain greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

For the Ganache

  • 12 ounces semi-sweet or milk chocolate Chips or chopped bars both work
  • 2/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1 and 1/2 tbsp butter

For Topping

  • 2-3 whole graham crackers
  • A few handfuls of mini marshmallows

Instructions

  • Make the donuts: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray your donut pans with nonstick spray and set aside. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients (the flour through the espresso powder). Add the wet ingredients and stir until everything is just combined. Don't over mix.
  • Bake: Add about 2 tbsp of batter to each cavity in the prepared donut pans. They should only be about 2/3 full.
    Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the donuts appear set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for a few minutes, then flip the pan upside down over a cooling rack to let the donuts fall out (you may need to ease them out with a butter knife). Let them cool completely. 
  • Make the ganache: Make the ganache while the donuts are cooling. 
    Add the chocolate to a bowl and set aside. Heat the cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until just simmering. Pour over the chocolate. Let sit for 4 minutes, then add the butter, and stir until everything is smooth and melted. If there are some lumps left, microwave for 10 seconds at a time, stirring between each interval, until smooth.
  • Assemble: Dip donuts into the ganache and place on a cooling rack with wax paper or a sheet pan underneath (to catch drips). Immediately sprinkle with the graham cracker crumbs and pop a few mini marshmallows on top of each donut. Toast the marshmallows with a kitchen torch.
  • Serve + Store: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. 

Notes

Note: Since this recipe does make quite a large amount of donuts, you can absolutely cut the recipe in half if desired!
