    Recipe



    Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water; set aside.
    Combine egg and 1/2 cup water; set aside. Position knife
    blade
    in food processor bowl. Add flour, potato flakes, sugar,
    milk
    powder, butter or margarine and salt and top with cover.
    Process 10 seconds or until well mixed. With processor run-
    ning, pour yeast mixture and egg mixture through food chute
    in
    a slow steady stream; process 5 seconds or until dough pulls

    away from the sides of bowl and forms a ball. If dough does
    not form a ball, add an additional 1 to 2 tablespoons water
    and
    pulse several times.
    Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead 3
    to 4 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place dough in a
    greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in a

    warm place (85 degrees), free from drafts, 1 hour and 30
    minutes
    or
    until doubled in bulk. Punch dough down and turn out onto a
    lightly floured board; let rest 15 minutes. Roll dough out
    to
    3/4-inch thickness; cut with a 2 1/2-inch doughnut cutter.
    Place doughnuts on a lightly floured surface. Cover and let
    rise in a warm place (85 degrees), free from drafts, 30
    minutes or
    until doubled in bulk.
    Heat 2 to 3-inches of oil to 375 degrees, drop in 2 to 3
    doughnuts at a time. Fry 30 seconds or until golden brown on

    one side; turn and cook other side 30 seconds. Drain well.
    Dip each doughnut in chocolate glaze while warm; cool on
    wire
    racks. Yield: 16 doughnuts.

    Chocolate Glaze:
    2 c. sifted powdered sugar
    2 to 3 Tbsp. cocoa
    1/4 c. boiling water
    Combine powdered sugar and cocoa, mixing well. Gradual-
    ly stir in water until mixture is smooth. Yield: 1 cup
