In a separate bowl, mix together the salt, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and flour. Slowly pour dry mixture into wet mixture. Stir together until just combined; do not overmix.
Using a piping bag or a ziplock bag with the corner cut off, pipe the batter carefully into the prepared donut pan making sure each cavity is only ⅔ full.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Donuts should be fluffy and should spring back when touched.
Allow cooling slightly for about 5 minutes before removing from pan.
While the donuts are baking or cooling, melt the chocolate chips, corn syrup, and butter together in a small bowl in the microwave for about 30 seconds.
After the donuts have cooled, dip the tops into the chocolate glaze and sprinkle with chocolate sprinkles. Allow cooling on a cooling rack.
