Ingredients

12 servings

For the dough

¼ cup warm water (105–110°f / 40–43°c)
2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (1 standard packet)
¾ cup whole milk, warmed to 105–110°f (40–43°c)
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 tsp fine salt
2 large eggs, room temperature
4 tbsp unsalted butter, softened and cut into pieces
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting

For frying

6 cups vegetable oil, for frying
Chef's tip
Avocado oil is neutral and handles high heat, making it a good all-purpose swap.

For the chocolate glaze

1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
3–4 tbsp whole milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

For serving

sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the warm water and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer and let stand for 5 minutes, until foamy and fragrant.
2
Add the warm milk, sugar, salt, and eggs to the yeast mixture and mix on low speed with the dough hook until combined, about 1 minute. Add the flour and mix on low until a shaggy dough forms, about 2 minutes.
