Yield 16 crullers

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup unsalted butter, 2 sticks, cubed
1 ¼ cups water
1 ¼ cups milk
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
5 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided
⅓ cup rainbow sprinkles, plus more for topping
8 cups canola oil
4 cups powdered sugar, sifted
4 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
large star piping tip
deep fry thermometer

Steps:

  • In a large pot over medium heat, combine the butter, water, milk, sugar, and salt. Whisk until the butter is melted and the mixture is steaming, about 5 minutes.
  • Quickly whisk the all-purpose and whole wheat flours and the baking powder into the hot milk mixture. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, for 5 more minutes. Remove the pot from heat and stir with a spatula to cool the dough.
  • When the dough is no longer hot to the touch, add the eggs one at a time, stirring to incorporate before adding the next.
  • Add the vanilla and sprinkles and stir to distribute evenly.
  • Transfer the dough to a piping bag or zip-top bag fitted with a large star tip.
  • On a parchment-lined baking sheet, pipe 4-inch (10-cm) circles of dough. Chill in the freezer until solid, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the glaze: In a large bowl, combine the powdered sugar, milk, vanilla, and cream cheese. Whisk until smooth and runny. Set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large pot until it reaches 350°F (180°C).
  • Carefully add the crullers to the hot oil. Fry about 3 at a time for 4-5 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown. The fried crullers should feel much lighter than they were originally. Transfer the fried crullers to a wire rack set over a baking sheet.
  • While still warm, dip one side of the crullers in the glaze. Return to the wire rack and allow excess glaze to drip off. Top with sprinkles.
  • Enjoy!
