Remove your mini donuts from your mini donut maker to cool on a wire cooling rack. I use a large tablespoon to kinda scoop my mini donuts out of the mold.

Kind of like light fluffy chocolate chip cookies,

I have bought a handle batter dispenser for use when making mini donuts, however, this batter is too thick, and the regular-sized chocolate chips wouldn’t move through it easily. Using mini chocolate chips would remove one of the obstacles but the batter is still quite thick and may not work that well in a batter dispenser.
