My mother used to make them once in a while too, but she also
occasionally made cake donuts, which I preferred. I have made them
myself a few times. They turned out great, but I only do it if there
are going to be enough people around to eat them up. Donuts should be
eaten as fresh as possible.

Are you talking donut shop donuts or the industrial bakery donuts that
they sell on grocery stores? Some donut shops make very digestible donuts.
