Strawberry Glazed Cake Doughnuts ( No Yeast )
*****************************************************
 
Makes : 12 large or 16 medium sized doughnuts


Ingredients :

For Doughnuts :

• 288 gm.  plain flour
• 1 1/2 tsp.  baking powder
• 1/8 tsp.  salt
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup caster sugar
• 75 gm.  unsalted butter, melted & cooled
• 1/2 tsp.  vanilla essence
• Milk, as required
• Oil, for deep frying

For Glaze :

• 3/4 cup icing sugar
• 1/4 tsp.  strawberry essence
• 1 1/2 to 2 tbsp.  warm water
• Pink food color, as required
• Colored sprinkles, for topping

Method :

• Sift flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Keep aside.
• In another bowl, beat eggs and sugar until creamy. Beat in melted butter and vanilla.
• Add the flour mixture and beat on low speed, just until the mixture comes together to form a soft dough. If required, add milk; little at a time to make a smooth dough.
• Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough for about 30 minutes.
• On a floured surface, roll out the dough to desired thickness. Cut out doughnuts using a doughnut cutter. Let them rest for about 10 minutes.
• Heat oil in a large pan or wok for deep frying. Fry doughnuts, in batches ( 3 to 4 at a time ) for about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
• Remove doughnuts from oil with a slotted spoon and let cool on a paper towel.

• In a small bowl, whisk together icing sugar, strawberry essence and enough warm water to make a smooth glaze. If too thick, add more water to get a thin glaze. Add enough food color to achieve the desired color.
• Dip the tops of doughnuts immediately in glaze. Place on wire rack and sprinkle with colored sprinkles. 
• Allow the glaze to set before serving the doughnuts.
