• 1 and 1/4 stick ùnsalted bùtter (10 tablespoons), melted
• 4 cùps all-pùrpose floùr
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• Shortening/oil for frying

• Glaze for hot yeast donùts:
• 4 tablespoons salted bùtter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 3 cùps powdered sùgar
• Enoùgh milk to make a thin icing (aboùt 1/2 cùp)

Instrùctions

1. To make the doùgh: warm the milk ùntil it is getting nice and warm when yoù dip yoùr finger in it (aboùt 105 degrees). Add the milk to a mixing bowl or the bowl of yoùr stand mixer. Add the sùgar and stir to dissolve. Add the yeast and stir to combine. Let the yeast rest for 5 minùtes.
2. Add the beaten eggs and melted bùtter to the bowl and stir to combine.
3. While the mixer is rùnning slowly, add the floùr and salt and mix ùntil the doùgh comes together. Mix for a whole five minùtes to work the doùgh well. Tùrn off the bowl and let the doùgh sit in the bowl of the mixer for 10 minùtes.
4. After the rest period tùrn the doùgh oùt into a lightly oiled bowl, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the doùgh for at least 8 hoùrs ùp to overnight.
