Savor the time-honored pairing of soft donuts stuffed with rich chocolate custard. Perfect for any occasion, these Boston Cream Donuts are a delightful treat.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 1 egg
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

Set the oven temperature to 175C 350F

Mix together flour, milk, egg, softened butter, baking powder, salt, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl

Blend until thoroughly blended, creating a silky batter

After lining each well with about two thirds of the batter, grease a donut pan

The donuts should be baked for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and spring back when touched, in a preheated oven

After taking the donuts out of the oven, let them cool in the pan for a short while

After that, move them to a wire rack to finish cooling

The semisweet chocolate chips should be melted in 30-second increments in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring after each to ensure smoothness

Heat the heavy cream in a different microwave-safe bowl until it's almost boiling

Once the chocolate chips have melted, pour the heated cream over them and stir until the mixture is glossy and smooth

To the chocolate mixture, add the vanilla extract and confectioners' sugar, and stir until thoroughly blended

After the donuts are cool, cut a small slit in the side of each one with a knife

The chocolate cream filling should be piped into the center of each donut using a piping bag

Before serving, let the filling settle for a few minutes
