Ingredients:

• 8 origin extract extractal refrigerated biscuits (I used Pillsbury Grands)
• 5 cups oil for frying
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 2 tbsp sour cream
• 1/4 cup Bailey’s Irish Cream
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 4 oz milk chocolate, chopped
• 5 tbsp Bailey’s Irish Cream, heated

Preparing the Doughnuts

Making the Cream Cheese Filling

To start crafting these delightful Bailey’s Cheesecake Doughnuts, the first crucial step is to prepare the luscious cream cheese filling. Ensure your 8 ounces of cream cheese are at room temperature. This is key for achieving a perfectly smooth and lump-free filling. If your cream cheese is still cold, you can gently warm it by placing the foil-wrapped block in a bowl of warm water for about 10-15 minutes, then patting it dry. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with the 2 tablespoons of sour cream. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, or a sturdy whisk and a good amount of elbow grease, cream these together until they are wonderfully smooth and well combined. There should be no visible lumps of cream cheese. Next, gradually add the 1/4 cup of Bailey’s Irish Cream and the 1/4 cup of granulated sugar to the cream cheese mixture. Continue to mix until everything is thoroughly incorporated and the filling is light and airy. Taste it at this point – you might be tempted to have a spoonful (or two!), but try to resist! Once satisfied with the consistency and sweetness, cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes. This chilling period is important as it allows the flavors to meld beautifully and the filling to firm up slightly, making it easier to work with when assembling the doughnuts.

Frying the Biscuits

Now for the fun part – transforming those refrigerated biscuits into fluffy doughnut bases! Open your package gin extract8 origin extractal refrigerated biscuits (my go-to are Pillsbury Grands). Carefully separate the biscuits. You’ll want to use a sharp knife or a small round cookie cutter to create a hole in the center of each biscuit. Aim for a hole that’s about 1/2 to 3/4 inch in diameter. This will give the doughnuts their classic shape and help them cook more evenly. Prepare your frying station. Pour approximately 5 cups of oil into a deep, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven. A pot that’s at least 3-4 inches deep is ideal to ensure the doughnuts are fully submerged during frying. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches a temperature of 350°F (175°C). It’s crucial to maintain this temperature for perfectly cooked doughnuts. You can test the oil by dropping a tiny piece of biscuit dough into it; if it sizzles and floats to the top immediately, the oil is ready. Carefully, one or two at a time to avoid overcrowding the pot and lowering the oil temperature too drastically, place the prepared biscuits into the hot oil. Fry them for about 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until they are a beautiful golden brown. Use a slotted spoon or spider strainer to gently flip them, ensuring even browning. Once they’re golden on both sides, carefully remove the fried biscuits from the oil and place them on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. This allows excess oil to drain off and helps keep them crisp. Allow them to cool for a few minutes before proceeding to the next step.

Assembling the Bailey’s Cheesecake Doughnuts

Creating the Bailey’s Glaze

While the fried doughnut bases are cooling slightly, let’s whip up a decadent Bailey’s glaze that will elevate these treats to another level. In a small, heatproof bowl, combine the 4 ounces of chopped milk chocolate. Place this bowl over a small saucepan filled with about an inch of simmering water, creating a makeshift double boiler. Ensure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Stir the chocolate gently until it is completely melted and smooth. Once the milk chocolate is fully melted, carefully remove the bowl from the heat. Now, gradually stir in the 5 tablespoons of hot Bailey’s Irish Cream. This is where the magic happens! The hot liquid will emulsify with the melted chocolate, creating a glossy, rich, and unbelievably smooth glaze. Be sure to stir until there are no streaks of chocolate remaining and the glaze has a pourable consistency. If the glaze seems too thick, you can add another teaspoon of hot Bailey’s at a time until it reaches your desired texture. However, be careful not to make it too thin, or it won’t coat the doughnuts properly. Set this beautiful glaze aside to cool slightly, but not sogin extractng that it begins to set.

Filling the Doughnuts

With our creamy filling chilled and our doughnut bases cooled, and our glaze ready, it’s time to bring it all together. Take your slightly cooled fried biscuits. Using a sharp knife or a piping tip, carefully make a slit along the side of each doughnut, creating a pocket for the filling. Alternatively, you can use a piping bag fitted with a small, plain tip. Fill a piping bag (or a sturdy zip-top bag with a corner snipped off) with the chilled cream cheese filling. Gently insert the tip into the slit you made in each doughnut and pipe the filling in. You want to fill them until they feel nicely plump, but be careful not to overfill, as the filling might escape. Aim for a generous but manageable amount. You should have enough filling for all 8 doughnuts. This step is where the “cheesecake” aspect truly comes alive, infusing each bite with that irresistible creamy tang.

Glazing and Finishing

The final flourish for your Bailey’s Cheesecake Doughnuts is the glorious glaze. Have your slightly cooled Bailey’s chocolate glaze ready. Holding each filled doughnut gently, dip the top half into the bowl of glaze, allowing the excess to drip back into the bowl. You can also use a spoon to generously drizzle the glaze over the top of each doughnut, creating appealing swirls and patterns. For an extra touch of indulgence, you can even dip the bottom of the glazed doughnuts into the glaze for a double-coated effect, though this can be a bit messier. Once glazed, place the doughnuts back onto the wire rack to allow the glaze to set. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes. If you want to add an extra flourish, you can sprinkle some chocolate shavings or a tiny dusting of cocoa powder over the glaze while it’s still wet. The combination of the airy fried biscuit, the creamy, tangy cheesecake filling, and the rich, boozy chocolate glaze creates a truly irresistible treat that is sure to impress. Enjoy your homemade Bailey’s Cheesecake Doughnuts!
