Cake Doughnut Mix

• 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup nonfat dry milk powder
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons baking powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 1/2 cups shortening
• Additional Ingredients
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 cup milk, plus
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• oil, for deep fat frying
• confectioners' sugar (optional)

1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, milk powder, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg; cut in shortening until crumbly. Store in an airtight container in a cool dry place for up to 6 months. Yields: 2 batches (about 9 cups total).
2. To Prepare Doughnuts: Place 4 1/2 cups doughnut mix in a large bowl. Combine eggs, milk and vanilla; stir into doughnut mix just until moistened. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead 15-20 times. Pat dough out to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut with a floured 3-inch doughnut cutter.
3. In an electric skillet or deep fat fryer, heat oil to 375. Fry a few doughnuts at a time until golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Dust with confectioners' sugar if desired. Serve warm.
