Instructions
1
In a large 20-quart stand mixer, combine 1 gallon of warm water with the vegetable oil, sugar, yeast, kosher salt, and vanilla extract. Stir to mix thoroughly.
2
Gradually add the sifted all-purpose flour to the mixture, continuing to mix until a dough ball forms. If necessary, you can adjust the amount of flour for the right consistency.
3
Once mixed, transfer the dough to a greased raising bucket and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Allow it to proof for approximately 1 hour, or until the dough has doubled in size.
4
After the dough has risen, punch it down gently and cut fist-sized pieces from the batch. Stretch and shape each piece into a circular form, approximately 9 inches in diameter.
5
Heat your deep fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Carefully fry the dough pieces in batches for about 30 seconds on each side, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown.
6
Once cooked, remove the fried dough from the fryer and set them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
7
Fill each fried dough with your favorite Bavarian cream using a piping bag or by cutting a slit in the side. Drizzle generously with chocolate syrup.
8
For an extra touch, dust with confectioners' sugar or sprinkle with cinnamon sugar before serving. Enjoy your Decadent Boston Cream Fried Dough Delights hot or warm!
