Steps:
- Dissolve yeast in warm water.
- Meanwhile, combine scalded milk, shortening, sugar, and salt in another bowl. Cool until lukewarm, about 5 minutes.
- Stir yeast mixture, mashed potatoes, and eggs into the milk mixture. Gradually add enough flour to make a soft dough.
- Turn dough out onto a floured surface. Knead until smooth. Place in a lightly greased bowl; turn over to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
- Roll dough out to a 1/2-inch thickness. Cut into doughnuts with a cookie cutter.
- Cover and let rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and water for glaze until smooth.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Fry doughnuts in the hot oil, working in batches if needed, until golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool, about 10 minutes.
- Dip doughnuts in glaze or drizzle over top.
