These little treats made our weekend very special. My cousins and their kids went to the house for a simple family gathering. We had a barbecue and burgers. We bonded and talked a lot. It was the perfect weekend. For dessert, we tried this one recipe we watched on TV that day. It was this Krispy Kreme Donuts. We decided to make it together with the kids. It was so fun. They were so excited by the idea of cooking. Aside from being easy to make, these little treats are very delicious. Well, the name speaks for itself, right? They taste like Krispy Kreme! Give it a try so you’d know what I’m talking about.
INGREDIENTS
2 cups scalded milk
1/2 cup butter
2/3 cup sugar, divided
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons yeast
4 eggs (beaten)
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
7 cups sifted flour
For the Glaze
3 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup cold water
How to make Krispy Kreme Donuts
Step 1: In a medium bowl, add 3 cups of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, 1/2 cold water. Whisk until well-mixed.
Step 2: In a small bowl, pour hot milk and add butter then wait for the butter to melt. Add salt and 1 teaspoon sugar then let it cool. Add the yeast, 3 cups of flour, remaining sugar, eggs, and nutmeg. Add the remaining flour.
Step 3: Pummel for 5 minutes and let it rise for 1 1/2 hours. Roll the dough out the slice into shapes. (Remember not to unroll the dough.)
Step 4: Let the dough rise for 45 minutes.
Step 5: Place a pan on the stove and turn the heat to 365 degrees C. When the oil is hot, add the dough and fry for 1 to 2 minutes on each side until the color turns brown. You fry the doughnut holes first followed by the donuts.
Step 6: Place the fried donuts onto a plate with a paper towel to drain the excess oil then dip into the glaze. Serve and enjoy!
