Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup warmed milk
  • 2 tsp active dry yeast
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • q.s. Vegetable oil, for frying to taste
  • 8 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup finely chopped fresh strawberries
  • 4-5 tbsp heavy cream or whipped cream
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze, optional) optional
  • 2-3 tbsp milk (for glaze, optional) optional
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract (for glaze, optional) optional

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Wooden spoon or dough whisk
  • Rolling pin
  • Donut cutter or round cutter
  • Piping bag with long thin tip

Method
 

  1. Pour warm milk into a large bowl, sprinkle the yeast and sugar over it, stir gently, and let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add melted butter and egg to the bowl, whisk together, then add half of the flour and salt; stir until shaggy.
  3. Gradually add the remaining flour until a soft dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 to 1.5 hours.
  5. Meanwhile, beat softened cream cheese in a medium bowl until smooth; add powdered sugar and vanilla, then fold in chopped strawberries and heavy cream until pipeable.
  6. Roll out the risen dough to 1/2-inch thickness and cut out donuts. Let them rise for another 30-45 minutes.
  7. Heat oil in a pot to 350°F-365°F, fry donuts in batches for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown, then drain on paper towels.
  8. Once cooled, fill the donuts with cheesecake filling using a piping bag and glaze if desired.
