3
Slowly stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients and turn dry ingredients over with a wooden spoon, or your hands until a wet dough forms. Allow dough to rest for at least ⏱️ 5 minutes.
4
Knead dough for ⏱️ 6-8 minutes either by hand or with a stand mixer until a soft dough forms. Knead on a lightly floured surface. You should be able to poke the dough and it springs back up.
5
Place dough in a buttered bowl and flip it to coat both sides. Cover with a towel and allow dough to rise in a warm location for 1 ½ for ⏱️ 2 hours until the dough doubles in size.
6
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll dough out to 1/4” thick and cut with a round cookie or donut cutter.
7
Place on a nonstick or parchment paper lined baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap. Place on counter and allow to rise for another hour until they double in size. *Do not place back in a warm oven*
8
Heat oil to 345°F- 365°F. Place dough into oil and fry on each side for about ⏱️ 30 seconds until lightly golden brown. Use a pair of metal tongs to remove donuts from oil and gently tap off excess oil. Allow to cool on a wire rack.
9
To prepare the glaze, wash and dry strawberries. Puree until smooth.
10
Combine strawberries with powdered sugar, start with 2 cups and add additional powdered sugar until desired thickness. Add vanilla extract and milk to fit your taste buds.

11
Dip donuts 2-3 times in the glaze. Flip over and allow the glaze to set for about ⏱️ 30 minutes. Cover with chocolate ganache.
12
For the ganache, combine 8 oz chocolate chips with 3 tbsp heavy cream in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave on high for ⏱️ 30-60 seconds. Stir until chocolate is smooth. Add additional heavy cream to thin out ganache if needed. Drizzle over donuts.
