Warm donuts dunked in velvety, milk chocolate glaze and sprinkled with rose salt...doesn't that sound fantastic?! We thought so too so we decided to add this delicious recipe to our ever-growing list of homemade donuts...enjoy...Homemade DonutsMakes two dozenIngredients:3 + 1/3 cups plain flour4 tablespoons caster sugar2 teaspoons rose salt4 teaspoons yeast4 organic large eggs3/4 cup warm water9 tablespoons organic, unsalted butter (at room temperature)Organic canola oilRose Salted Milk Chocolate Glaze (recipe below)Directions:Place flour, sugar, salt, yeast, eggs, and water in the bowl of a stand mixer…mix on low speed for about 5 minutes until well combined and elastic. Then, slowly add pieces of butter while mixer is running on medium speed until well combined for another 7 minutes…stop the mixer occasionally to scrape down the side of the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise in a sunny, warm spot until it has doubled in size…this can take anywhere from 1-3 hours. Then, remove from bowl and roll out on a floured surface to a little under 1 cm thickness. Using a 2.5″ round cookie cutter and a nickel-sized round piping tip, cut out the donuts and centers. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and cover with a kitchen towel. Allow to rise for another hour. 15 minutes before you are ready to fry the donuts, place two inches of canola oil into a high-sided pot and bring the temperature up to 360 degrees Fahrenheit. You will want to maintain this temperature as you are frying the donuts so keep an eye on the thermometer and raise/reduce heat as needed. Fry 2-3 donuts at a time, flipping once golden, about a minute on each side. Remove from oil using a slotted spoon and place on a layer of paper towels to drain. Once you are finished frying the donuts and they are cool enough to handle, dunk the tops in the Rose Salted Milk Chocolate Icing (recipe below) and place on a cooling rack…sprinkle with rose salt if you wish. If you want to skip the chocolate, you can also sprinkle with powdered sugar (as pictured). Simply place a tablespoon of powdered sugar in a small, fine mesh sieve and tap to sprinkle over donuts. Enjoy immediately.Rose Salted Milk Chocolate GlazeIngredients:1/4 cup unsalted, organic butter3 ounces high quality milk chocolate (I used Scharffen Berger 41% milk chocolate)2 tablespoons organic whole milk1 teaspoon organic light corn syrup1 teaspoon vanilla extract1 cup organic powdered sugar, siftedRose salt for sprinklingDirections:Melt chocolate slowly in a medium saucepan over low-medium heat, stirring constantly.
