Preparation Steps
1
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and dry yeast.
2
Dissolve the instant coffee powder in the warm milk, then add the eggs and vanilla extract.
3
Pour the coffee milk mixture into the flour mixture and begin to combine the dough.
4
Melt the butter and gradually add it to the dough while kneading continuously until you have a smooth, elastic dough.
5
Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
6
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1.5 cm (½ inch) thick. Use a large glass or doughnut cutter to cut out circles.
7
In a deep pot, heat the oil to 350°F (180°C). Check the oil temperature with a small piece of dough – if it immediately floats to the top and gently fries, the oil is ready.
8
Fry the doughnuts for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Do not overcrowd the pot, to prevent the oil temperature from dropping.
9
Remove the fried doughnuts and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil, then let them cool slightly.
10
Combine the powdered sugar with the heavy cream and a little extra coffee powder to make a coffee glaze.
11
Dip the tops of the doughnuts in the coffee glaze and let them set for a few minutes.
12
Serve fresh and enjoy the unique flavor of these coffee-flavored doughnuts!
