Directions: |
Directions:Dissolve yeast in water with sugar. Wait a few minutes and then mix everything together well (except glaze ingredients) in a bread mixer. Turn into oiled bowl and let rise 30 minutes. Dough will be a little wet to handle. Use a fair amount of flour on the counter to roll out until 1/3 inch thick. Cut donuts and let sit a minute to plump again before frying them.
For glaze - soften gelatin a few minutes in 1/4 cup cold water, then add to 3/4 c hot water. Stir well. Add the powdered sugar, cream of tartar and vanilla. Whip well with a wire whip.
Glaze the donuts while they are extremely hot. Dip donuts into freshly whipped glaze, Place them on a cooling rack with a cookie sheet underneath. From time to time, scrape the glazed drippings back into glaze bowl. For chocolate glaze, thicken glaze with more powdered sugar and Hershey's chocolate ice cream syrup. |

Notes: Sister Bangerter gave this to me when President Bangerter gave Sadee her patriarchal blessing. We love them, both the people and the donuts. Making these has become a fun fall tradition.
