Preparation

Step 1

Combine mix, baking soda, cinnamon in bowl. Whisk eggs, sugar, sour cream, vanilla in second bowl. Stir dry mixture into egg mixture. Place on floured surface; gently knead in chips. Shape into disk; wrap. Chill 3 hours.
For frosting, heat cream in small saucepan until steaming. Pour over chocolate in a bowl; stir until smooth.
Unwrap dough; pat 1/2 inch thick on floured surface. Cut out doughnuts using a floured 2 1/2 inch cutter and a 3/4 inch cutter for holes.
Heat 2 inches oil in deep pan to 365 degrees. Slide a few doughnuts and holes into oil; fry until dark golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper toweling. Repeat.
Dip in frosting. Or, pour glaze over both sides of doughnuts. (Or dust doughnuts with powdered sugar.)
