1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup evaporated milk

1 egg, beaten
3 3/4 cups flour
1/2 cup confectioners (powdered) sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla
butter (for bowl)

Place Crisco, sugar and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer!. Add 1/2 cup boiling water and stir until mixed!. Pour in milk and allow to cool until lukewarm!.

Dissolve yeast in 1/4 lukewarm water!. When dissolved, add to yeast mixture!. Add egg and stir!.

Gradually beat in half of the flour; adding as much flour as remains until dough is no longer sticky!. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured board and knead for several minutes until smooth and elastic!.

Place dough in a lightly buttered bowl, turning over once to butter the top!. Cover tightly and refrigerate immediately; do not allow to rise!. Chill for 1 hour!.

When ready to make donuts, heat 3-4 inches peanut or vegetable oil in a deep fryer to 375°F!.

Meanwhile, roll out chilled dough to 1/4 inch thickness and cut into 2 1/2 inch squares using a sharp knife!. (Don't do this step ahead of time because the dough shouldn't be allowed to rise before frying)!.

Lower donuts into hot oil several at a time!. After about 2 minutes, turn the donuts over using a slotted spoon!. Fry another minute, or until donuts are light golden brown!.

Using a slotted spoon, remove donuts to paper towels!. Sift confectioners' sugar over donuts while still warm!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
