How To Make Chocolate Donuts | Easy Donuts Recipe

Hi guys! Всем привет! Welcome to my channel Alla's Yummy Food. I'm so excited to have you here today and in this class I'm going to show you how to make chocolate Russian donuts filled with chocolate. They're super quick, very easy to make, don't require a lot of ingredients and are amazing if you want to make a quick dessert, if your friends are coming, family is coming or you just want to treat yourself on that Sunday afternoon. So now let's get started. Now guys, to become a member and get access to all my recipes, including this one, you can join my online cooking school at aliceyummyfood.com/recipes and join thousands of other students just like you and our amazing cooking and baking community. Now, let's get started. In a bowl, add dry cottage cheese. You can get this in Russian, Polish or Eastern European stores. you can also use quark ricotta or farmer's cheese as well but I preferred with cottage cheese of course you want to break it down and then add your sugar salt and mix everything one more time then take your hand blender and blitz the mixture until it is nice and smooth if you don't have a hand blender you can use a sieve and sift through your cottage cheese as well then you want to add vanilla extract and egg mix everything together make sure it's all mixed in through then you're going to add the second egg and mix everything one more time you want to get nice smooth mixture just like so and it will be quite wet that's how it should be and that's absolutely normal now I've got here I've got my flour baking soda and all the dry ingredients which I'm going mix through and we're going to gently sift that through into our cottage cheese mixture. We want to do this in stages as well so that there are no lumps and everything is mixed through. I do recommend sifting the flour because otherwise you're going to get some lumps and we don't want lumps for sure. Use a spoon and then mix all your mixture together. it will become into a nice sticky dough and after adding flour for the second time you will see that it will form a dough ball i usually like to then transfer it onto the counter and knead it by hand a little bit don't be tempted to add any more flour even if the dough is sticky it's better if you oil your hands and then knead the dough a little bit once your dough is done you're going to place it into a bowl, wrap it in cling film and then set it aside for half an hour to chill. After 30 minutes add oil into your hands and onto the counter. We're going to cut the dough in half and you will get around 14 to 15 donuts from each half. So in total around 30 donuts. When we work with one half you want to put the other half away or cover it with a towel. You want to cut the dough into same sized pieces roll them out into a small ball and set them aside repeat the process with all the balls you can measure them as well if you want to if you're a perfectionist and once you've rolled them out you want to cover them in cling film and start preheating your oil once your donuts are rolled out you're going to take each donut and then kind of make a little indentation inside and then add your dark or milk chocolate or white as well any chocolate that you like then press down nice and even and try and roll it out back into a nice shape just like so you could also add more grated chocolate if you wanted to repeat with all the balls and cover them with cling film add oil i use sunflower oil you can use any vegetable oil that you want and start preheating that to test the oil you can drop a little piece of dough and see if it's starting to float if it is then the oil is ready you want to add your donuts inside and you want to cook them around five minutes and you want to cook them for around seven minutes turning them over after a few minutes on each side i did time this and it took exactly seven minutes for me but it depends on your oil and how hot your oil can be so if you feel like they're burning too fast do turn it down and make sure they're sizzling rather than frying really really fast we really want to cook the dough so make sure they stay nice and golden if you're not sure you can take one out cut it inside and check however as they cool they will cook more and then in a large bowl line it with some paper towels to soak all the oil when our donuts are ready once they cooked use a spoon and place them onto a paper towel to get rid of any excess fat. Once your donuts are nice and dry and have cooled down you can decorate it with extra chocolate and here they are. They look so amazing. Look at that. I'm gonna cut inside and show you how it looks. So I just like extra chocolate that's why there's so much. But look at that so fluffy inside and that gooey dark chocolate in the middle absolutely amazing guys i'm salivating these are going to be your favorite especially if you like chocolate they're literally to die for and perfect for any occasion enjoy
