Take a saucepan and heat milk in it until it starts to boil. Don’t let it boil, remove it from the stovetop and cool it to a lukewarm temperature.

1

Take a bowl and add yeast and lukewarm milk. Mix and keep it aside for five minutes. Now, add a cup of flour and mix.

2

Keep it aside for nearly half-hour until it forms a bubble. Meanwhile, beat the egg yolks.

3

In the yeast mixture, add butter and sugar. Stir well and add in salt and vanilla extracts. Again stir while adding egg yolks.

4

Now start adding flour gradually. Keep adding flour until a soft dough is formed and don’t make it sticky.

5

Knead the dough to make a ball. Take a bowl and grease it. Add in the kneaded dough ball. Wrap it in plastic and keep it in a warm place for 1 hour.

6

Transfer the dough to a cutting board and cut it with knife or using hands and form the bowls. Put them on the baking sheet and cover them to rise more.

7

Take a frying pan and add oil. Heat it to 360 degrees Fahrenheit. Put in paczki and fry them.

8

Make sure all sides are cooked well and turn brown. After they are fried, transfer them to the cooling rack for half a minute and instantly dust them with sugar.

9

After they are cooled, using a knife, create a hole on either side. Fill the paczki with jelly or custard inside it using a pastry bag with a tip.
