Sweet Milk Doughnuts

Dough

2 eggs well beaten
1 c. sugar
2 T. softened butter
3/4 c. milk
Mix well then add:
3 1/2 c. white flour
4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt.
Mix together, should have the consistancy of sugar cookie dough. Chill for 2 hours. Take half of the dough and flatten out in your hands into a circle, lay on floured surface and lightly dust more flour on the top. Roll out until about 1/3 inch thick then cut into circles. (If you do not have a doughnuts cookie cutter, I used a small jar ring and the lid off the oil)
In a large pot heat up oil (2 or 3 inches deep) Drop a small piece of dough in to test, if it bubbles rapidly then it's ready. When the underside starts to show a little brown, turn them over and let boil on other side until brown. Remove from pot and lay on paper towels to cool.

For powdered sugar doughnuts, shake up in a paper or zip lock bag of powdered sugar. For cinnamon sugar, combine 1/2 c sugar and 1 tsp cinnamon in bag and shake doughnuts in it.
