Description
Indulge in these homemade cream-filled donuts, perfectly fried to golden perfection and topped with a rich chocolate glaze. A delightful treat for any occasion!
Ingredients
- chopped chocolate
- butter
- corn syrup
- milk
- yeast
- nutmeg (optional)
- cinnamon (optional)
- pastry cream
Instructions
- Fry the donuts in hot oil, being cautious not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the donuts and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Repeat the frying process with the remaining donuts.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the chopped chocolate, butter, and corn syrup. Stir until melted and smooth.
- Remove from heat and let it cool slightly before using.
- Once the donuts are completely cooled, use a piping bag fitted with a round tip to fill each donut with the chilled pastry cream.
- Dip the tops of the filled donuts into the chocolate glaze, allowing any excess to drip off.
- Let the glaze set for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- Make sure the milk is warm but not too hot, as high temperatures can kill the yeast.
- For a richer flavor, you can add a pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon to the donut dough.
- Store any leftover donuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
