    1 package dry yeast
    1/2 cup sugar

    1 1/2 cup warm water
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 cup undiluted evaporated milk
    1/4 cup Soft shortening

    Recipe



    In a large bowl, sprinkle yeast over water, stir to dissolve. Add sugar, salt, eggs, and milk. Blend with rotary beater. Add 4 cups of the flour and beat with a wooden spoon until smooth and thoroughly blended. Beat in the shortening, then add the remaining flour, about 1/3 cup at a time, beating it in with a spoon until it becomes too stiff to stir, then working in the rest with your hands. . Cover and chill overnight. Roll out on floured board to 1/8" thickness. Cut into 2 1/2" squares. Deep fry at 360 degrees 2-3 minutes or until lightly browned on both sides. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle heavily with confectioner's sugar. Makes about 5 dozen. Dough keeps well in refrigerator for several days. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and punch down occasionally.
