<\/p>\n
3 T. milk<\/p>\n
3 T. boiling water<\/p>\n
1 tsp. dry active yeast<\/p>\n
8 oz. all-purpose flour (a little under 2 C., I recommend you measure and weigh)<\/p>\n
1 1\/2 oz. sugar (about 3 T.)<\/p>\n
1 egg<\/p>\n
1 oz. butter, cold to room temperature<\/p>\n
1 dash salt<\/p>\n
oil<\/p>\n
Glaze<\/p>\n
1\/3 C. butter<\/p>\n
2 C. confectioners’ sugar<\/p>\n
1 1\/2 tsp. vanilla<\/p>\n
4 T. hot water (or as needed)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In a large measuring jug, combine the milk and boiling water. Add a tsp. of the sugar and the yeast. Stir it gently, then leave it in a warm place for the yeast to activate (aka foam). In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, the rest of the sugar, and the salt. Cut in the butter using your fingers or a pastry blender, until it resembles crumbs. Add the egg (give it a quick beat) and yeast mixture to the flour mix, and mix into a smooth dough. This usually takes about 5 minutes of mixing. Turn the dough out onto a lightly-floured counter and knead for about 5 to 10 minutes \u2014it should feel springy and little bubbles should form under the surface. Place it back in the bowl, cover with a cloth or plastic wrap, and let rise for about an hour until double in size. Once risen, place the dough onto the counter and cut it into 4 pieces. One piece at a time, stretch it into a long rope about an inch to an inch and a half wide. Cut strips about an inch long, ball em up with your hands, and place them on a baking tray or wire rack to wait. Cover the doughnuts holes with a cloth to rise while you heat the oil to 375\u00b0F. Place the doughnuts into the oil and fry until golden brown on each side, about 2 minutes. Be sure to fry only a few at a time so they don\u2019t overcrowd and stick together. Drain on a paper towel or wire rack over a cloth, before glazing them. Be sure to glaze them warm, or else they won\u2019t get that delicious coverage!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
