Roscos De Cabello De ángel Angel Hair Donuts

Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

2. Add the softened butter to the dry mixture and use your fingers to incorporate it until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.

3. Make a well in the center of the mixture and crack the eggs into it. Stir gently to combine the eggs with the flour mixture.

4. Slowly pour in the warm milk while stirring continuously to form a soft dough. Add the cabello de ángel and knead the dough until it comes together and the strands are evenly distributed.

5. Lightly flour a clean surface and turn out the dough. Knead it for a few minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

6. Place the dough back into the mixing bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rest for about 30 minutes in a warm, draft-free place.

7. After the dough has rested, heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat for frying.

8. On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thickness. Use a donut cutter or round cookie cutters to form donuts. You can also shape the donuts by hand if you don't have cutters.

9. Carefully place the donuts in the hot oil, frying them in batches for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

10. Use a slotted spoon to remove the donuts from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

11. Once all the donuts are fried, dust them generously with powdered sugar while they are still warm.
