Ingredients
For the dough:
- 1 packet dry yeast
- 150 g lukewarm water
- 150 g lukewarm milk
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp melted butter (lukewarm)
- 1 egg
- 600 g all-purpose flour
For the filling:
- Chocolate hazelnut spread (e.g., Nutella or homemade spread)
- Olive oil for frying
Optional: Recipes for homemade chocolate hazelnut spread:
- Spread with carob flour
- Homemade hazelnut spread
- Homemade Nutella
Instructions
For the dough:
- In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except for the flour. Mix well with a whisk.
- Gradually add the flour while kneading until the dough is smooth, soft, and just barely not sticky. Adjust the flour if needed.
- Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise for 35–40 minutes.
- Divide the dough into small balls, about 25–30 g each, and flatten them into thin disks, roughly the size of a small plate.
For assembling the piroshki:
- Place 1 tablespoon of chocolate hazelnut spread in the center of each dough disk.
- Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and seal tightly along the seam to ensure they don’t open during frying.
For frying:
- Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a deep pot. Test the oil with a small piece of dough; if it rises to the surface, the oil is ready.
- Fry 4–6 piroshki at a time for 2–3 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Repeat until all are fried.
Golden and crispy on the outside, with a gooey, chocolatey center, these piroshki are a delightful treat for sweet lovers. Perfect for breakfast, dessert, or an indulgent snack, they’re bound to satisfy any chocolate craving. A warm, sweet bite of happiness!
