Ingredients You\u2019ll Need<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For the Dough:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • 2 \u00bc teaspoons active dry yeast<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • \u00be cup warm milk<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 2 \u00bd cups all-purpose flour<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • \u00bc cup granulated sugar<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • \u00bc teaspoon salt<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 2 egg yolks<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    For Frying and Coating:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Vegetable oil (for frying)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • \u00bd cup granulated sugar (for rolling)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      For the Filling:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • 1 cup Nutella (or any chocolate-hazelnut spread)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Step-by-Step Instructions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        1. Activate the Yeast<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

        In a small bowl, combine the warm milk and yeast. Let it sit for 5\u201310 minutes until foamy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        2. Make the Dough<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

        In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the yeast mixture, egg yolks, butter, and vanilla. Knead until a smooth, slightly sticky dough forms\u2014about 8\u201310 minutes by hand or 5 minutes with a dough hook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        3. Let It Rise<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

        Cover the dough with a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1\u20132 hours, or until doubled in size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        4. Shape the Doughnuts<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

        Punch down the dough and roll it out to \u00bd-inch thickness. Use a round cutter to form doughnut shapes (about 2\u00bd inches wide). Place them on a floured surface, cover, and let them rise again for about 30\u201345 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        5. Fry Until Golden<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

        Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pot to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C). Fry 2\u20133 doughnuts at a time for 1\u20132 minutes per side until golden brown. Drain on paper towels, then roll in granulated sugar while still warm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        6. Fill with Nutella<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

        Let the doughnuts cool slightly. Fit a piping bag with a round tip, fill it with Nutella, and gently squeeze into the center of each doughnut. Don\u2019t be shy\u2014generous filling makes all the difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Optional Tips<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Warm the Nutella<\/strong> slightly before piping for a smoother fill.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Add cinnamon<\/strong> to the sugar coating for a flavor twist.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Serve warm<\/strong> for ultimate gooey goodness.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Final Thoughts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
