    Spud Nuts and Coffee or Cocoa Frosting


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 pkg. yeast
    1/2 cup warm water
    2 cups milk, scalded
    1 tsp. salt
    1/2 cup sugar
    2/3 cup shortening
    6 to 7 cups flour
    1 cup potatoes mashed (I use refrigerated leftovers from the night before)
    2 eggs

    Dissolve yeast in the warm water; set aside.

    Combine scaled milk, salt, sugar, and shortening; cool to lukewarm. Add dissolved yeast. Add just enough flour to make a nice dough; mix dough until well blended. Let rise covered in warm place for 1 hour.

    Roll dough out and cut into shapes with doughnut cutter. Let doughnuts rise again until double in size.

    Fry until golden brown in electric skillet or or in a fry daddy. Do not cook on to high a heat or they will be brown on the outside but doughy on the inside.

    Frosting for Spud Nuts

    Combine in a saucepan:
    1 cup cream
    1 cup brown sugar
    Boil mixture until it reaches the softball stage.
    You can then add either:
    2 Tbsp. coffee
    OR
    2 Tbsp. cocoa
    Blend until smooth then frost your Spud Nuts.
