You can make chocolate filled donuts at home.Simple ingredients and minimal equipment make them possible.You will keep the dough for 6 hours.You will make the chocolate filling, fry the donuts, coat them with sugar, and let them cool.You will use a pastry bag to fill the donuts.
Step 1: Put the butter in pieces.
You will need to separate the butter into smaller pieces.The printed measurement on the butter wrapper is an easy way to do this.You can cut the butter into 7 equal pieces by using the stick of butter as a template.
Step 2: Milk and butter can be brought to room temperature.
Milk and butter will be used to make your dough.Proper mixing of ingredients is ensured by the room temperature of the milk and butter.Leave the following ingredients on your kitchen counter for 30 minutes to bring them to room temperature.
Step 3: Attach a dough hook to the mixer.
You will need an electric stand mixer or electric hand mixer to make chocolate filled donuts.A dough hook attachment is required for a stand mixer.This will make sure that your dough is properly mixed.
Step 4: The milk and yeast needs to be combined.
Combine the milk and yeast in the bowl of your stand mixer.When the yeast is completely dissolved, stir the two together with a spoon.This should take about a minute.Stir together 1/3 cup of whole milk and 2 12 of active dry yeast.
Step 5: They should add the eggs, sugar, salt, and flour.
When the yeast has dissolved completely in the milk, it is time to add and mix more ingredients.If you use a hand mixer, place the flour, sugar, salt, and eggs in a large bowl.For about 3 minutes, mix on low speed.In addition to the milk and dissolved yeast, you will be mixing: 3 12 cups of all purpose flour, 1/3 cup of sugar, and Kosher salt.
Step 6: Add the butter to it.
The butter will be two pieces at a time.When the two pieces of butter are completely incorporated into the dough, mix on low speed.Make sure the butter is fully incorporated before you add the next pieces.It should take a few minutes to add all the butter.
Step 7: The dough must be refrigerated.
The bowl of dough should be removed from the base of the stand mixer.The bowl should be covered with plastic wrap.The donut dough should be refrigerated for at least 6 hours.
Step 8: The milk, egg yolks, and sugar should be put into a small saucepan.
The saucepan should be turned on low heat.Continue to stir until the mixture reaches a temperature of about 70 degrees Celsius.34 cup (180 mL) whole milk, 2 egg yolks, and 1 cup (50 grams) of sugar will be stirring together.
Step 9: Add the liquid.
The mixture of milk, egg yolks, vanilla extract, and sugar has reached a temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit or 71 degrees Celsius.The heat should be turned up to low-medium as you add the cornstarch.It takes 6-7 minutes for the custard to get very thick.As the mixture gets more complex, stir it occasionally.
Step 10: Place the chocolate chips in a container.
Stir in 14 cup (40 grams) of chocolate chips once the filling has reached a custard-like consistency.When the chocolate is completely melted, combine it with the filling mixture.The consistency of the filling should be pudding-like.Take out the heat.
Step 11: The chocolate filling can be placed in a piping or pastry bag.
To put the chocolate filling into the donuts, you will need a piping bag and metal tip.The bag has a metal tip.The bag should be placed in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Step 12: A baking sheet should be prepared.
The donuts will be placed on a baking sheet where they will rest until frying.Line the baking sheet with paper.The paper should be sprayed with cooking spray.Set the baking sheet aside.
Step 13: A work surface is made of flour.
You will be rolling out dough and making donuts.The counter, pastry board, or cutting board in your kitchen will work well.Take care not to pile on too much flour when dusting your work surface.
Step 14: Put the dough in a container.
Take the donut dough out of the fridge and put it on the work surface.Roll the dough into a square with your hands.The square should be about 12 inch thick.
Step 15: Cut the dough into donuts
Use a 3 12 inch or 9 centimeter round cookie cutter to cut the dough into donuts.You can use a cup or glass that is 3 12 inches or 9 centimeters in diameter if you don't have a cookie cutter.Transfer the donuts to the baking sheet.
Step 16: The donuts need to rise.
You will cover the donuts with a piece of plastic wrap when you transfer them to the baking sheet.The donuts should be moved to a warm spot.The donuts should rise in the warm spot about 2 to 3 hours.
Step 17: The sugar coating has to be prepared.
Place 1 cup of sugar in a small bowl.You can coat the donuts with this sugar.The bowl of sugar should be left alone.
Step 18: Place the paper towels on the baking sheet.
You will fry the donuts after they rise.You will need to place the donuts on an absorbent surface after frying them.Line a large baking sheet with paper towels.As you remove the donuts from the oil, you will place them here.
Step 19: Get your equipment ready.
Canola oil can be poured in a heavy bottomed pot.The oil should be heated to about 350 degrees.If you don't have a temperature gauge, you can check the temperature by dipping a wooden spoon handle in the oil.The oil has reached the proper temperature if it starts to bubble.You can use a deep fryer to fry donuts.
Step 20: The donuts need to be fried.
Take 3 donuts at a time and put them in the hot oil.They should be Fryed for 2 to 3 minutes on the first side.After turning them over, fry them for an additional 2 to 3 minutes on the second side.The donuts should be placed on the baking sheet.If you want to adjust the temperature of the oil during cooking, you will need to use a thermometer.When they are cooked, the donuts should be golden brown.
Step 21: The donuts should be put into the sugar.
You will toss the donuts in the bowl of sugar if you can handle them without burning yourself.You want to coat each donut evenly.Return the donuts to the baking sheet once you have coated them.
Step 22: Allow the donuts to cool off completely.
Allow the donuts to cool completely after you coated them in sugar.It's important that the donuts are cool before you eat them.The donuts should be cool for at least 30 to 40 minutes.
Step 23: The chocolate filling should be removed from the fridge.
The chocolate filling should have been chilling for about 30 minutes.Remove the filling from the refrigerator once you have refrigerated it.
Step 24: Go to the side of the donut and make a hole.
To fill the donuts with chocolate, you will need to create a hole on the side.The tip is attached to the bag.The donut has a hole in it.
Step 25: Each donut has to be filled with chocolate
If you poke a hole in the side of the donut, squeeze the piping or pastry bag.Continue squeezing until you get to the center of the donut.As chocolate filled donuts are best enjoyed immediately, serve as soon as they are filled.
