Hello Patricia,
I believe that the chocolate itself is melted before it's added to the other ingredients.
See below for two recipes.
Phaed

1/4 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 Tbsp. pure vanilla extract
3 ounce unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour(sifted)
2 teas baking powder
1 teas baking soda
1/2 teas salt
1-1/2 cups milk
--------------------
Butter a 9-inch square cake pan, dust with cocoa.
Cream butter with sugar. Add eggs and beat well. Stir in vanilla next,
then chocolate.
Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together. Beat this in,
a little at a time, alternating with milk.
Pour in pan. Bake at 375º for 50 minutes. Cool.
1/3 cup soft butter
1 egg white
1 Tbsp Sherry
2 cups confectioner's sugar
1 Tbsp grated orange rind
Put all ingredients in bowl of a mixer and beat until smooth. Spread on

Hello Sharon,
I can't find anything called "doughies", but there are several recipes for fried dough. See below for three.
Phaed
Fried Dough
Ingredients :
6 1/2 c. flour, sifted
1/2 c. sugar
2 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. or pkgs. yeast
1/4 c. butter or margarine
2 c. warm water
1 egg
Preparation :
In large mixing bowl, combine yeast, warm water, 2 cups flour,
sugar, salt, butter or margarine. Mix at medium speed with electric
mixer for 2 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups flour and egg and mix at high
for 2 minutes. Add remaining flour (3 cups) and knead for 8-10
minutes. Let rise until double in bulk; let rise again. Roll into
pancakes and fry in oil. Serve warm with butter, honey or
confectioners' sugar.
----------------------------------
Zepole (Fried Dough)
Ingredients :
1 tsp. dry yeast
3/4 c. warm water
1 egg
2 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
Cooking oil
Preparation :
Sprinkle yeast into water. Let stand for a few minutes, then
stir until dissolved. Beat in egg, flour, and salt. When smooth,
cover and let stand in warm place until doubled in bulk. Beat down
and let rise again until doubled. Drop by teaspoon into 1 inch of
hot oil. When brown on one side, turn to other side. Drain on
paper. Sprinkle with sugar.
----------------------------------
Fried Dough
Ingredients :
4 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
1 pkg. dry yeast
2 tbsp. oil
2 1/2 c. water
Preparation :
Mix flour, yeast, salt, oil, adding water gradually and kneading
to form a soft dough. Cover dough and put in a warm place for 1
hour to rise. Cut dough into pieces the size of a walnut and shape
in the form of a doughnut, if desired. Fry in hot, deep frying oil
until golden brown on both sides. Remove from oil and cover with
powdered or regular sugar. Serve hot.
