2 1/4 tsp of yeast
1/ cup of warm water
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup sugar
2/3 cup of unsalted butter- cut into small cubes
2 cups of scalded milk
1 cup of Mashed Potatoes
2 beaten eggs
6 to 7 cups of flour.... I ended up using 8!!
Put yeast into warm water. Add salt sugar and shortening to scalded milk and let cool slightly. Add Mashed potatoes, egg, yeast and flour to mixing bowl. Mix until combined. Knead lightly adding flour as needed. This makes a really soft, some what sticky dough.
Place in oiled bowl and let rise in warm place till doubled.
On lightly floured board roll dough and cut into 1/2 inch spud nuts. Let dough rise for 1 hour.
Fry in deep fat 350 degree's. Glaze with mixture made with 2 cups powdered sugar, 1 tsp. vanilla and a little warm milk. I did 1/2 with glaze and 1/2 with cinnamon sugar combo. This Recipe made 62 doughnuts, but it depends on size you cut out.
