Ingredients
×1
- 1/4 ounce Yeast
- 1/4 cup Water
- 1 1/2 cups Water
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 1 tsp Salt
- 2 Eggs
- 1/3 cup Shortening
- 5 drops Flour
- Sprinking Canola Oil
- 1/2 cup Milk
- 2 cups Sugar
- 1 1/2 cups Vanilla
- 6 tablespoons Boiling Water
- 1/3 cup Butter
Method
- Dissolve yeast in warm water in 2 1/2-quart bowl. Add milk, sugar, salt, eggs, shortening and 2 cups flour. Beat on low for 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in remaining flour until smooth.
- Cover and let rise until double, 50-60 minutes. (Dough is ready when indentation remains when touched.) Turn dough onto floured surface; roll around lightly to coat with flour. Gently roll dough 1/2-inch thick with floured rolling pin. Cut with floured doughnut cutter.
- Cover and let rise until double, 30-40 minutes.
- Heat vegetable oil in deep fryer to 350°. Slide doughnuts into hot oil with wide spatula. Turn doughnuts as they rise to the surface. Fry until golden brown, about 1 minute on each side. Remove carefully from oil (do not prick surface); drain. Dip the doughnuts into creamy glaze set on rack.
- Heat butter until melted. Remove from heat. Stir in powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth. Stir in water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency.
