🍩 Ingredients
For the Donuts:
• 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F or 43°C)
• 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg
For the Strawberry Cheesecake Filling:
• 1 cup cream cheese, softened
• ½ cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ cup strawberry jam
For the Glaze:
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons milk
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
🔥 Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
1. In a bowl, dissolve yeast and 1 tablespoon sugar in warm milk. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
2. Add flour, salt, melted butter, egg, and the remaining sugar. Mix and knead until the dough is smooth and elastic (about 5–7 minutes).
3. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 1 hour).
Step 2: Shape & Fry the Donuts
4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to ½-inch thickness.
5. Cut out donuts using a round cutter (or a glass). Place them on a tray, cover, and let them rise again for about 30 minutes.
6. Heat oil in a deep fryer or pot to 375°F (190°C).
7. Fry the donuts in batches for about 1–2 minutes per side until golden brown.
8. Drain on paper towels and let them cool completely.
Step 3: Make the Filling
9. In a bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
10. Fold in the strawberry jam until well combined.
Step 4: Fill the Donuts
11. Once donuts are cool, use a piping bag with a small nozzle to fill them with the strawberry cheesecake mixture. Insert the nozzle into the side of each donut and gently squeeze in the filling.
Step 5: Make the Glaze & Finish
12. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
13. Drizzle or dip the filled donuts in the glaze. Let it set before serving.
⏳ Recipe Notes & Tips
✔ Yeast Activation: Ensure the yeast is bubbly before adding the flour to get the fluffiest donuts.
✔ Proper Frying Temperature: Maintain the oil at 375°F (190°C) to get evenly cooked, golden-brown donuts.
✔ Cooling Matters: Let the donuts cool completely before filling to prevent the cheesecake from melting.
✔ Storage: Keep leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat briefly for a fresh taste!
