Recipe
Dissolve yeast in warm water in 2-1/2 quart bowl. Add milk,
salt, eggs, shortening and 2 cups flour. Beat on low speed
scraping bowl constantly, 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed
scraping bowl occasionally, 2 minutes. Stir in remaining
flour until smooth. Cover and let rise in warm place, until
double, 50-60 minutes. (Dough is ready when indentation
remains when touched.) Turn dough onto floured surface; roll
around lightly to coat with flour. Gently roll dough 1/2"
thick with floured rolling pin. Cut with floured doughnut
cutter. Cover and let rise until double, 30-40 minutes.
Heat vegetable oil in deep fryer to 350 degrees. Slide
doughnuts into hot oil with wide spatula. Turn doughnuts as
they rise to the surface. Fry until golden brown, about 1
minute on each side. Remove carefully from oil (do not prick
surface); drain. Dip the doughnuts into creamy glaze set on
rack then when slightly cooled spread chocolate glaze on
top. Can dip in
sprinkles or other toppings after chocolate if desired.
