One of my favorite donuts is the glazed chocolate cake ones. When I was learning to drive, I used to beg my dad on the weekends to go get donuts, so that I could practice driving. I would always choose the glazed chocolate cake donuts.

This glazed old fashion chocolate donut cake tastes similar to glazed chocolate cake donuts which makes me so happy. It is a wonderful dessert to make when you are going to have company. 

If you are looking for other chocolatey desserts, this Easy Lava Cake is out of this world! It looks hard but is so easy to make.

Pour about half of the flour mixture into the butter mixture and slowly combine. Mix the buttermilk in. Then add the remaining flour mixture to the bowl. 

Pour cake mixture into a greased bundt pan and bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes. 

Once the cake is cooled, combine powder sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth and pour over the top of the cake.
