If you've prepared the Chocolate Glaze and Donuts are not yet cool, cover the glaze with a damp tea towel to prevent it from drying out. For the Nutella Version Donuts: Add 4 Tbsp Nutella in the donuts batter along with the rest of the ingredients mentioned. For the Nutella Version Glaze: 1/2 Cup castor sugar, 1 Tbsp Water and 2 Tbsp Nutella (melted). Mix all the ingredients together, slowly add water until the glaze has the right consistency
