Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients until combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients until smooth. Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture, stirring until just combined.
  3. Transfer the batter into a piping bag and fill each cavity of the donut pan about two-thirds full. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
  4. Once baked, allow the donuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
  5. Prepare the chocolate glaze by melting the chocolate chips and corn syrup in intervals until smooth.
  6. Dip the top of each cooled donut into the chocolate glaze and let them sit to set.
  7. Mix powdered sugar with red food coloring and water to create the blood drizzle, then drizzle over the donuts.
  8. Serve and enjoy these spooky treats at your gathering!
