3 1/4 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 beaten eggs
2/3 cup sugar
2 oz melted white chocolate
2 tbsp melted butter
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla

Preheat the deep fryer.

In a mixing bowl, sift the flour, baking powder and salt together.

In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together.

Add the melted chocolate and butter. Stir in the milk and vanilla. Slowly add the sifted flour into the egg mixture, incorporate into a soft dough. Cover the dough and chill for 2 hours.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Roll the dough out to 1/2-inch thick. Cut the doughnuts out, using a 2 1/2-inch doughnut cutter.
