How to build custom charts using Splunk Highcharts

I need to develop a custom donut chart using Highcharts API. I came to know that Splunk internally uses Highcharts for visualization and I am planing to leverage the API and build a custom chart. I am not clear on how to define and use Hightcharts in Splunk. Below is the code snippet I have used, which is throwing error as "Uncaught ReferenceError: Highcharts is not defined"

require([
"splunkjs/mvc",
"underscore",
"splunkjs/mvc/searchmanager",
"splunkjs/mvc/simplexml/ready!",
"highcharts"
], function(
mvc,
_,
SearchManager,
HighCharts
) {

Try putting "highcharts" before "splunkjs/mvc/simplexml/ready!" in the require part.
