For the doughnuts:
For the topping:
- In a large bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- In a jug, whisk together the egg, egg yolk, vanilla and milk. Slowly stream this mixture into the butter and beat until well combined.
- Sieve in the cocoa, flour and salt. Mix until well combined.
- Tip the dough onto a floured surface, give it a light knead and gently bring together.
- Using a floured rolling pin, roll the dough to about 1cm thick.
- Use an 8cm round cutter to cut out about 10 doughnuts, making sure to cut them out as close together as possible. Re-roll any cut-offs to cut out more rounds.
- To cook the doughnuts, heat a deep fat fryer (or a pot filled with sunflower oil) to 180 ̊C. Working in batches, cook the doughnuts for about 2-3 minutes on each side. Once cooked, transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper. Allow the doughnuts to cool fully.
- In a bowl, mix together the icing sugar, espresso powder and vanilla together. Add 2-3 teaspoons of hot water to loosen. Carefully dip the tops of the doughnuts into the coffee icing. Sprinkle on some chopped walnuts while the icing is still wet.
