Directions:
Combine Crisco and sugar. Add egg yolks and white, well beaten.
Add mashed potatoes and milks. Sift flour, baking powder, salt and
spices together. Add to first mixture, working in more flour if needed.
Roll out on a lightly floured surface and cut using a donut cutter or 2
round biscuit cutters (one large outer one with a small one in center for
the donut hole).
Fry in a deep fat fryer at 365°F, reducing heat if donuts are browning
too quickly. Turn once. Transfer to paper towels and sprinkle
immediately with confectioners sugar; alternatively, fill a small brown
bag with 1/2 cup granulated sugar mixed with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
and shake to coat. Or the donuts may be glazed with confectioners'
icing.
