Directions

Mix beaten eggs, milk, sugar and shortening. Blend well. Add flour and other dry ingredients. Stir well. On floured board, pat part of the dough 1/3 inch thick. Cut with donut cutter. Fry at 370 degrees F. until golden brown on one side, then turn over and fry other side. Drain on paper towels. Shake in a bag with white sugar while still warm. If in a hurry, drop dough in by the teaspoon or with a cookie dough scoop for donut holes.
