How To Make glazed raised donuts

• 
  Step 1
  Put warm water (not hot, it will kill yeast) in bowl/cup and pour in the yeast with 1 tsp of sugar.
• 
  Step 2
  While yeast is activating place milk in a microwave safe dish and scald.
• 
  Step 3
  Add butter to the milk and let it melt completely, pretty much cooling it down some, but not completely.
• 
  Step 4
  Place the sugar and salt in mixing bowl.
• 
  Step 5
  Pour milk and butter mixture over the sugar and salt, stirring until dissolved.
• 
  Step 6
  Add one cup of the flour.
• 
  Step 7
  Add eggs
• 
  Step 8
  Add activated yeast
• 
  Step 9
  Mix until this mixture is smooth.
• 
  Step 10
  Add remaining flour and mix until dough comes away from sides, and is soft and knead-able.
• 
  Step 11
  Pour out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic.
• 
  Step 12
  Place dough into a lightly sprayed (non stick spray) bowl, let sit for 2-3 hours and is doubled in size or larger.
• 
  Step 13
  This is 1.5 hours after sitting.
• 
  Step 14
  This is 3 hours later.
• 
  Step 15
  Put dough on a lightly floured surface and flour your rolling pin and roll it about a half inch to an inch thick
• 
  Step 16
  Next cut out the donuts and the holes. I used a pan holder I have for cutting and a piping tool attachment for the donut hole.
• 
  Step 17
  Let the donuts sit for 30 minutes or so.
• 
  Step 18
  Then fry in canola oil (325 degrees - 350 degrees). Honestly just watch them for the first try and time it. I would say a minute maybe on each side give or take. You judge how dark or light, we enjoyed all tones mmmmmmm

  Step 19
  Place your donuts on a cooling rack over a pan.
• 
  Step 20
  Mix all ingredients of glaze in a bowl, stir until smooth.
