Looking for a Krispy Kreme glazed doughnut clone


Krispy Kreme-like Doughnuts

2 pkg yeast
1/4 cup warm water (105-115 degrees)
1 1/2 cup lukewarm milk (scalded, then cooled)
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
1/3 cup shortening
5 cup all-purpose flour
Vegetable oil

Dissolve yeast in warm water in 2 1/2-quart bowl. Add milk, salt, eggs,
shortening and 2 cups flour. Beat on low speed scraping bowl constantly,
30 seconds. Beat on medium speed scraping bowl occasionally, 2 minutes.
Stir in remaining flour until smooth. Cover and let rise in warm place,
until double, 50-60 minutes. (Dough is ready when indentation remains
when
touched.) Turn dough onto floured surface; roll around lightly to coat
with flour. Gently roll dough 1/2-inch thick with floured rolling pin.
Cut
with floured doughnut cutter. Cover and let rise until double, 30-40
minutes. Heat vegetable oil in deep fryer to 350 degrees. Slide doughnuts
into hot oil with wide spatula. Turn doughnuts as they rise to the
surface. Fry until golden brown, about 1 minute on each side. Remove
carefully from oil (do not prick surface); drain. Dip the doughnuts into
creamy glaze set on rack then when slightly cooled spread chocolate glaze
on top. Can dip in sprinkles or other toppings after chocolate if
desired.

Creamy Glaze:

1/3 cup butter 2 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla 4-6 tablespoons hot water

Heat butter until melted. Remove from heat. Stir in powdered sugar and
vanilla until smooth. Stir in water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until
desired consistency.

Chocolate glaze:
1/3 cup butter 2 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla 4-6 tbsp. hot water 4-oz milk chocolate or
semi-sweet chips

Heat butter and chocolate over low heat until chocolate is melted;
remove from heat. Stir in powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth.
Stir in water 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency.
