Old-Fashioned Deep Fried Doughnuts

Im sharing a great recipe I tried this week for "Swedish Doughnuts," they turned out fabulous, the best homemade Ive ever had! They were crisp on the outside, with a texture like a heavy honey cruller on the inside. They were just the right amount of sweet, rolled in cinnamon sugar to top them off.

Ingredients:
2 eggs
1 c. sugar
2 c. cold mashed potatoes
3/4 c. buttermilk (I used leftover whey from cheesemaking)
2 tbsp. melted butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. baking soda
4 1/2 c. flour
4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. nutmeg
oil for frying

Method:
Combine eggs and sugar until creamy. Stir in mashed potatoes, buttermilk, melted butter and vanilla. Combine. Add dry ingredients and mix until thoroughly combined.
Refrigerate dough for an hour or more until thoroughly chilled. Roll dough 3/4" thick and shape as desired. Make rings or twist into crullers. Deep fry at 375oF for 2 min on each side and golden brown.
