2
1 ⁄ cup white sugar
2
1 teaspoon salt

shortening, and 2 cups of the flour. Mix for a few minutes at low speed, or stir-
ring with a wooden spoon. Beat in remaining flour
dough no longer sticks to the bowl. Knead for about 5 minutes, or until smooth
and elastic
Place the dough into a greased bowl, and cover. Set in a warm place to rise
until double. Dough is ready if you touch it, and the indention remains. Turn the
dough out onto a floured surface, and gently roll out to
with a floured doughnut cutter. Let doughnuts sit out to rise again until double
in size. Cover loosely with a cloth.
Icing: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in confectioners sugar
and vanilla until smooth. Remove from heat, and stir in hot water one table-
spoon at a time until the icing is somewhat thin, but not watery. Set aside.
Heat oil to 375ºF. Slide doughnuts into the preheated oil two at a time. Turn
doughnuts over as they rise to the surface. Fry each doughnut about 90 sec-
onds per side. Remove from hot oil, to drain on a wire rack. Dip doughnuts
into the glaze while still hot, and set onto wire racks to drain off excess. Keep
a cookie sheet or tray under racks for easier clean up. Makes 18 doughnuts.
