Time 13m

Yield 24 doughnuts

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup melted butter
1 cup cold mashed potatoes (these need to be plain without butter, milk etc.)
2 eggs, beaten
3 cups flour, sifted
2 tablespoons baking powder (I know, it's a lot)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 cup buttermilk or 1/2 cup sweet milk

Steps:

  • Stir sugar, butter and potatoes into eggs and beat until creamy.
  • Sift flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and cocoa together.
  • Alternately add milk and flour to egg mixture.
  • Chill well for 2+ hours (overnight even).
  • Roll 1/2 inch thick (*It is best to roll small amounts at a time and keep dough chilled as much as possible. Or you can roll, cut and return doughnut to fridge to keep chilled before frying. It makes it easier to handle).
  • Cut out.
  • Fry in hot fat (365 F) 3 minutes turning once.
