Description

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.
