Description

These Strawberry Cheesecake Stuffed Donuts are fluffy, golden pastries filled with luscious cream cheese and strawberry jam, topped with a sweet vanilla glaze. The perfect indulgent treat for brunch or dessert!


Ingredients

For the Donuts:

  • 1 cup warm milk

  • 2 teaspoons active dry yeast

  • 2 tablespoons sugar

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

  • 1 large egg

For the Filling:

  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/2 cup strawberry jam

For the Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

  • 2 tablespoons milk

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  • Prepare the Dough:
    In a bowl, dissolve yeast and 1 tablespoon sugar in warm milk. Let it sit until frothy, about 5 minutes.
    Add flour, salt, melted butter, egg, and the remaining sugar. Knead until smooth and elastic.
    Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

  • Form and Fry Donuts:
    On a floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut out donut rounds.
    Let rise again for about 30 minutes until puffy.
    Heat oil to 375°F (190°C). Fry donuts until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.

  • Make the Filling:
    Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Fold in the strawberry jam until combined.

  • Fill the Donuts:
    Once cooled, poke a hole in the side of each donut. Pipe in the strawberry cheesecake filling.

  • Glaze:
    Whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla to make a smooth glaze. Drizzle over filled donuts.


Notes

Ensure the yeast is properly activated for the fluffiest results. Allow donuts to cool completely before filling to prevent melting. Store leftovers in the fridge and consume within 2–3 days.
