-
- 3 TBL butter melted
- 1/4 C AP flour
- 3 TBL milk
- Heat in skillet until it thickens into a blob
- 2 C more of cake flour
- 1/3 C sugar
- 1 TBL instant coffee
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Mix dry ingredients to combine
- 1/2 whole milk – room temperature
- 1 egg
- add melted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla
- Whisk to combine
- Put Kitchen Aid on low, and drizzle in wet ingredients
- Add starter and mix on high until combined
- The dough will still be sticky
- Dump onto a heavily floured surface
- Work dough with hands – kneading until it is not too sticky
- Roll out dough to about 1/2 inch in thickness
- Using a pastry ring cut circles from the dough, and place on parchment paper in groups of three – making a triangle
- You can roll out remaining edges to get a few more circles
- Put into refrigerator to cool at least 45 minutes
- Prepare hot oil (365º)
- PREPARE ICING
- Meanwhile mix up 2 C confectioner sugar with 1/2 tsp vanilla
and 2 TBL milk- NOTE: It is easier to add a few drops of liquid rather than to try to recover from an icing that is too thin. Err on less liquid.
- OPTIONAL: Omit coffee, and add 1 tsp citric acid to the icing
- COOK THE DONUTS
- Drop into hot oil (365º) and fry until browned
- Dip into the icing, or drizzle over top
