2 (1/4 ounce) envelopes active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (105 to 115 degrees)
1 1/2 cups lukewarm milk
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1/3 cup shortening
5 cups all-purpose flour
1 quart vegetable oil (for frying)
glaze
1/3 cup butter
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
4 tablespoons hot water

1
Heat oil in a deep-frier to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2
In a small bowl sprinkle the yeast over the warm water, and let stand for 5 minutes, or until foamy.
3
In a large bowl, mix together the yeast mixture, milk, sugar, salt, eggs, shortening, and 2 cups of the flour. Mix for a few minutes at low speed.
4
Beat in remaining flour 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough no longer sticks to the bowl.
5
Knead until smooth and elastic. Place the dough into a greased bowl, and cover. Set in a warm place to rise until double.
6
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and gently roll out to 1/2 inch thickness.
7
Cut with a floured doughnut cutter. Gentlely place the doughnuts in the hot oil. Don't crowd the doughnuts.
8
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in confectioners' sugar and vanilla until smooth. Remove from heat, and stir in hot water one tablespoon at a time until the icing is at a runny consciencey.
9
Fry the doughnuts until golden brown on each side. Dip in the glaze while still warm.
10
Put a cookie sheet under a wire rack. Place the glazed doughnut on the wire rack and let the excess glaze drip off.
