Chocolate Custard-Filled Doughnuts

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup whole milk

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 large eggs

Vegetable oil, for frying

1 cup heavy cream

4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Powdered sugar, for dusting

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.

In a small saucepan, heat milk and butter until warm (110°F/43°C); butter does not need to melt completely.

Add warm milk mixture to dry ingredients; beat until smooth.

Add eggs; beat until combined.

Gradually add remaining flour to form a soft dough.

Knead dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes.

Place dough in a greased bowl; cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

For the custard, heat heavy cream in a saucepan until it begins to simmer.

Remove from heat; add chopped chocolate and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth. Let cool and refrigerate until thickened.

Punch down dough; roll out to 1/2-inch thickness.

Cut out doughnuts using a 3-inch round cutter; place on a floured surface, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).

Fry doughnuts, a few at a time, until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

Once cool, use a pastry bag to fill each doughnut with chocolate custard.

Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
