Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 pk Active dry yeast
1 1/2 c Warm Water (105 deg. f.)
1/2 c Sugar
1 ts Salt
2 ea Eggs
1 c Evaporated milk
7 c Sifted all-purpose flour
1/4 c Soft shortening
1 x Oil for frying

In large bowl, sprinkle yeast over water; stir to dissolve. Add sugar,
salt, eggs and milk. Blend with rotary beater. Add 4 cups of the
flour; beat smooth. Add shortening; beat in remaining flour. Cover
and chill several hours. Deep fry at 360 degrees 2 to 3 mintues or

top immediately when you drop them into the oil, the oil isn't hot
enough.) Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle heavily with confectioners'
sugar. Serve hot.
