OLD-FASHIONED CAKE DOUGHNUTS (DONUTS)
There's nothing better than homemade doughnuts! I like cake donuts better than yeast donuts. This is how I make my favorite doughnuts for my family on the weekends. Real simple ingredients you already have on hand. The hardest part is letting the dough chill for an hour before frying them. You can make the dough the night before and have them ready to go in the morning, that's what I do ;) either douse them in cinnamon sugar or icing sugar or .....(you get the idea) I use a dough hook on my Stand Mixer which makes this real easy to whip up. NOTE: Prep time does not include chill time.

Steps:
- In a large bowl mix the sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg.
- Add eggs, milk and melted butter. Beat well.
- Add 3 cups of the flour, beating until blended. Add one more cup of flour and beat well. The dough should be soft and sticky but firm enough to handle. If you feel its necessary, add up to 1/2 cup more flour.
- Cover with plastic wrap and chill for *at* *least* one hour.
- Remove your dough from the fridge and begin heating about 1" of oil to 360F in a large metal skillet.
- Working half the dough at a time, roll it out on a floured surface to about 1/2" thickness. Cut out circles using a doughnut cutter or large biscuit or cookie cutter. For the center, I actually use the cap off my martini shaker ;) to cut the holes.
- Gently drop the doughnuts in batches into the hot oil. Flip them over as they puff and turn them a couple more times as they cook. They will take about 2-3 minutes in total and will be lovely and golden brown all over.
- Remove from the oil and set them on paper towels or brown paper bag (that removes all the fat, you know).
- Douse them with sugar and cinnamon, icing, chocolate dipped with sprinkles or whatever you like.
DROP DOUGHNUTS
These were the homemade version of timbits in my house while I was growing up. Best eaten the night made, but just as wonderful the day after.

Steps:
- Melt the shortening in a small saucepan over medium heat. Set aside to cool slightly but still liquid.
- In a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the sugar and shortening together on medium speed, until just combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the milk and vanilla, and continue beating until the mixture is light, about 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, sift the flour, baking powder, nutmeg, mace, and salt into a medium bowl.
- Reduce the mixer's speed to low, add the flour mixture until just combined. (The texture of the dough will be soft and loose.) Transfer the dough to a large piece of plastic wrap and wrap it well. (Make sure you scrap off all the dough clinging to the paddle.) Refrigerate the dough for 4 hours or overnight.
- On a lightly floured work surface, roll the chilled dough out into a rectangle about 1/2-inch thick. Dip the edges of a 2 1/2-inch-round doughnut cutter in flour and cut the dough into doughnuts. Place the doughnuts and holes on a baking sheet lined with parchment.
- Put enough vegetable shortening into a tall, heavy-bottomed pot to fill it about a third of the way up. Heat the shortening over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer inserted in the oil registers 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels.
- Working in batches, fry the doughnuts and holes, turning once, until they are golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the doughnuts to the paper towels to drain and cool. Repeat until all the doughnuts and holes are fried. (Make sure the shortening returns to 375 degrees F. between batches.)
- For sugared doughnuts, roll the doughnuts in sugar or cinnamon sugar while they are still warm. To cover the doughnuts with confectioners' sugar, allow them to cool completely before rolling in the sugar.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a 3-inch-round cookie cutter or glass to trace 12 circles on the parchment, leaving space between each. Flip the parchment over and lightly coat with cooking spray. Fit a pastry bag with a 1/2-inch round tip or snip a 1/2-inch hole in one corner of a large resealable plastic bag.
- Sift the flour, baking powder, nutmeg and salt into a medium bowl. Beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until well combined, about 2 minutes. Beat in the whole egg and yolk until incorporated and the mixture turns pale yellow, about 3 minutes. Beat in the milk and vanilla until smooth, scraping down the bowl as needed. Reduce the mixer speed to low; gradually beat in the flour mixture until just incorporated (do not overmix). Transfer the batter to the prepared pastry bag.
- Using the circles as a guide, pipe the batter into 3-inch rings. (To make doughnut holes with the remaining batter, pipe 1-inch rounds onto the parchment.) Refrigerate while you heat the shortening, or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Heat about 6 cups shortening in a large pot over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 340 degrees F. (You want to have about 2 inches of liquid once the shortening melts.) Use scissors to cut the parchment around each doughnut, leaving a 1-inch border. Carefully invert 2 doughnuts into the shortening and peel off the parchment with tongs. Fry until golden brown, 1 minute 30 seconds per side. (Fry the doughnut holes 30 seconds per side.) Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Bring the shortening back to 340 degrees F and repeat with the remaining doughnuts.

Steps:
- Place potatoes and 3 1/4 cups water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cook until potatoes are fork tender, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat; drain, reserving liquid. Return potatoes to saucepan. Using a whisk, mash potatoes over medium-high heat until dry, about 1 minute. Set 1 cup potatoes aside; reserve remainder for another use.
- Place yeast in bowl of an electric mixer; pour 3/4 cup reserved potato liquid over yeast. Sprinkle granulated sugar over yeast; let dissolve, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1/2 cup all-purpose flour and 1/2 cup cake flour; stir with a wooden spoon until combined. Cover with plastic wrap; set aside in a warm place until surface is covered with bubbles, about 30 minutes.
- Place chocolate in a heat-proof bowl or the top of a double boiler, and set over a pan of simmering water. Heat, stirring with a rubber spatula, until melted and smooth.
- Place 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon reserved potato liquid in a small saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove from heat, and stir in the baking soda and cocoa powder until combined. Add the melted chocolate, the reserved cup mashed potato, confectioners sugar, and salt; stir to combine.
- Add potato mixture, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, and remaining 1/2 cup cake flour to yeast mixture. Using paddle attachment, mix on low speed until flour has been moistened, about 30 seconds. Increase speed to medium high; mix until thoroughly combined, 1 minute. Add the remaining 1/2 cup all-purpose flour; mix on low speed 30 seconds. Increase speed to high; mix another 30 seconds; the dough will be very sticky.
- Lightly oil a large bowl; set aside. Sift an even layer of all-purpose flour over a clean work surface. Turn dough out onto floured surface, and gather into a ball. Transfer dough to oiled bowl, and cover with plastic wrap. Set aside in a warm place to rise until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Turn out dough onto floured surface, and fold in half, deflating dough. Return dough to oiled bowl, re-cover, and set aside to rise until doubled in size again, about 30 minutes.
- Heat oil in a low-sided six-quart saucepan over medium-high heat until a deep-frying thermometer registers 375 degrees. Lightly dust a baking pan with flour, and line a second one with paper towels; set both aside.
- Sift a light coat of flour onto a clean work surface. Turn out dough. Sift another layer of flour over dough. Roll into a 12-by-14-inch rectangle, about 1/2 inch thick. Using a 2 3/4-inch doughnut cutter, cut out doughnuts as close together as possible, dipping the cutter in flour before each cut. Transfer the doughnuts to the floured baking pan, and set aside 10 minutes, but not more.
- Gently pull on sides of the doughnuts, slightly enlarging holes. Working in batches of four, transfer doughnuts to oil, and cook until tops have expanded and cracked slightly, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, turn doughnuts over, and cook 1 minute more. Transfer doughnuts to lined baking pan, and set aside until cool enough to handle. Repeat with remaining doughnuts.
- Gather remaining dough scraps into a ball. Let rest 10 minutes; pat into a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle. Cut, let rest 10 minutes, and cook.
- While still warm, coat doughnuts with chocolate glaze, and sprinkle with chopped pistachios or coconut, if desired. Transfer to a wire rack to set, and serve.
