Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
- Mix the yeast, warm milk, and a teaspoon of sugar in a small basin. Let it sit for 5 to 7 minutes, or until it gets foamy.
- In a big bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and salt. Add the yeast mix to the bowl.
- Knead the dough for 8 to 10 minutes, or until it is smooth and stretchy.
- Put the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, & let it rest for 1 to 2 hours or until it is twice as big.
Step 2: Shape and Fry the Doughnuts
- Roll the dough out to about 1/2 inch thick and use a doughnut cutter or a glass to cut it into circles.
- Put the doughnuts on a baking sheet, cover them, and let them sit for 30 minutes.
- Put oil in a deep pan and heat it to 350°f (175°C). Fry each doughnut for 1 to 2 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown.
- Let them cool completely on paper towels before filling them.
Step 3: Fill with Magical Flavors
Fit a piping bag with a filling Nozzle and fill each Doughnut according to its house:
- Gryffindor—Cookie butter cream
- Slytherin—Chocolate buttercream
- Hufflepuff—brown butter toffee custard
- Ravenclaw: Blueberry cream
- The Sorting Hat was made of whipped cream that was colored red, green, yellow, or blue to show the house.
Step 4: Decorate Like Hogwarts
- For Gryffindor, dip in red icing, sprinkle with Biscoff Biscuit crumble, then drizzle with gold frosting.
- Slytherin: Dip in chocolate icing, pipe green buttercream swirls on top, and sprinkle with cookie sugar.
- Hufflepuff: Cover with Yellow frosting, drizzle with chocolate, and sprinkle with cookie crunch.
- Ravenclaw: Dip in blueberry frosting and sprinkle with blue and silver sprinkles.
- For the Sorting Hat, dip it in chocolate frosting, add gold stars on top, and then put a fondant Sorting Hat on top.
