Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together lukewarm milk, egg, and melted butter until smooth.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, sugar, and instant yeast until well blended.
  3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, stirring until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
  4. Transfer the dough into a lightly oiled bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm place for 1.5 to 2 hours.
  5. Gently punch down the dough and roll it out to a thickness of about 1/4 inch on a floured surface.
  6. Use a round cutter to cut out shapes from the rolled dough and place them on a parchment-lined tray.
  7. Heat oil in a deep frying pan until it reaches 170-180°C (340-360°F).
  8. Carefully place a few donuts into the hot oil, frying them for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  9. In a chilled bowl, whip heavy cream with sugar until stiff peaks form.
  10. Once cooled, cut each donut in half horizontally and add a spoonful of condensed milk for sweetness.
  11. Using a piping bag, pipe the whipped cream into each donut half until filled, then dust with powdered sugar.
