Contributed by World Recipes Y-Group

Ingredients

 * 2 tbsp butter
 * 2 eggs
 * ½ tsp nutmeg
 * 1 cup sugar
 * 1 cup milk
 * 4½ cups self-rising flour

Directions

 * 1) Cream the butter which should be soft but not melted; add sugar and blend well; add well-beaten eggs.
 * 2) Add nutmeg to the flour and add to the first mixture alternately with the milk.
 * 3) Turn the dough out to a floured board, cut and cook in deep fat hot enough to make a doughnut rise to the surface quickly and brown each side for about 1 minute.
 * 4) If you want to add a few more calories, put sugar and nutmeg or cinnamon in a bag and some doughnuts and shake or smear some good chocolate on top.
