Theresa'S Homemade Donuts

• 4 cans biscuits (the less expensive ones work well)
• 1/2 can any lard (must be fresh unused lard)
• 1 box 10x powdered sugar

1. Open biscuits.
2. Lay out on counter or wax paper.
3. Press lightly.
4. With an object cut out the center of the biscuits (an old medicine bottle, Coke bottle, plastic cap or ketchup cap).
5. Place oil in frying pan or pot.
6. Do not heat up.
7. Mix the box of powdered sugar with 1 cup of water and place in bowl next to pan with the oil.
8. When you heat the oil you must be ready to complete the next few steps together.
9. When the oil is heated enough place donut rounds into oil for 7 to 10 seconds on one side, then flip to the other side for same amount of time.
10. If the oil is too hot, they will brown very quickly and not be done in the middle.
11. If it is not hot enough and takes over 15 seconds on each side then they will absorb the oil and be soggy.
