I have wonderful news to share with you: such a thing as cheesecake-filled donuts exist.
I had never occurred to me that one could stuff liquified cheesecake filling into a jelly donut shell, but it should have. Thanks to chef Jen Balisi, now we know for certain that it can be done.
Balisi specializes in Filipino food, so it’s appropriate that she chose ube-flavored cheesecake filling for these donuts. Ube means “purple yam”, which I have seen at my local East Asian grocery store but not tried yet.
Balisi’s donuts are now available at Dough Doughnuts, a gourmet donut chain in New York City.
