Step 1: Make the Donut Dough

  1. In a bowl, combine flour , sugar , yeast , and salt .
  2. Add warm milk , egg , melted butter , and vanilla . Mix until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead for 2–3 minutes, then cover and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes .

Step 2: Shape the Donut Holes

  1. Punch down the dough and roll it into a log.
  2. Cut into 1-inch pieces . Roll each piece into a ball and press gently to form a small indentation in the center (for stuffing).
  3. Let rest for 10 minutes while you heat the oil.

Step 3: Fry the Donuts

  1. Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a pot to 350°F (175°C) .
  2. Fry the donut holes in batches for 2–3 minutes , flipping once, until golden.
  3. Drain on a wire rack lined with paper towels.

Step 4: Prepare the Fillings

Cheesecake Filling :

  1. Beat cream cheese , powdered sugar , and vanilla until smooth.
  2. Mix in whipping cream and lemon juice . Chill for 15 minutes to firm up.

Strawberry Filling :

  1. In a saucepan, combine strawberries , sugar , and lemon juice . Cook over medium heat until soft (~5 minutes).
  2. Mash slightly, then stir in cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp water. Simmer until thickened.
  3. Let cool completely before stuffing.

Step 5: Stuff the Donut Holes

  1. Use a piping bag or small spoon to fill each donut hole with cheesecake filling .
  2. Top with a tiny dollop of strawberry jam in the center.
  3. Seal the hole gently with dough edges or a bit of melted butter.

Step 6: Serve & Enjoy

  1. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate .
  2. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Customization Ideas

  • Swap Fillings : Use blueberry or raspberry jam instead of strawberry.
  • Add Crunch : Top with crushed graham crackers or chopped nuts.
  • Keto-Friendly : Use almond flour and sugar-free jam.
  • Caramel Twist : Add a drizzle of caramel sauce between fillings.

Tips for Success

  1. Fry at the Right Temperature : Too hot and they’ll burn; too low and they’ll be greasy. Use a thermometer!
  2. Chill Fillings : Cheesecake needs to be firm enough to hold its shape.
  3. Cool Fillings First : Let jam and cheesecake cool completely to prevent melting.
  4. Pipe Carefully : Use a small piping bag to avoid overfilling.
