Directions

In a mixing bowl, combine the milk, sugar, and instant yeast. Stir with a spatula until well mixed. Add the bread flour and salt, then mix until a dough forms. Incorporate the unsalted butter, kneading until the dough is smooth and elastic. Cover the bowl with a lid and let the dough rest for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
After resting, divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Shape each piece into a round ball, then create a hole in the center of each to form a ring. Place the shaped dough on a tray, cover with plastic wrap or a damp cloth, and let them rise for 40 minutes.
Heat oil in a deep pan to 160°C (low-medium heat). Carefully fry the dough rings until golden brown and evenly cooked on both sides. Remove from the oil and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil. While still warm, sprinkle generously with sugar.
