Not bad, easy enough to make especially if you have a bread mixer to mix and knead at the same time. And simple enough to fry. Family loved/liked I just liked them simply because I love to create and perfect things. My first try at doughnuts and it won't be my last. Good Recipe!

I just finished making these doughnuts a little bit ago. They're really delicious. Like others, I had to add more flour. I was kind of cautious about adding the flour though b/c I didn't know how they would turn out. I added about a cup extra and I could've definitely added more. The dough was still VERY sticky. 5/6 cups just doesn't seem like enough if you're really trying to achieve a dough that's not sticky. I let it raise for about an hour and it was huge! The dough raises well and the doughnuts taste great. Everyone in my family loved them and I'll definitely make them again.

Delicious! Thank you for this wonderful recipe Kelly. I followed it exactly as directed, except i substituted butter for shortening. Also, I used a glass and a orange juice can lid to cut the doughnuts out since i don't have a doughnut cutter. I split the recipe in half, and still got 20 good sized doughnuts after it. Yummy and easy, this recipe was worth the time and effort it took to make it.

I worked in a bakery and did the donuts for 15 years. I agree with Brooke who wrote that the glaze only needs 10x sugar, vanilla and a little milk. You can also try this which is close to how I did it in the bakery using a proffessionl rack. Put your donuts on the rack with a baking pan underneath. While the donuts are still hot pour the warm glaze over them staight from the pot. If you want you can flip the entire pan over at this point using another baking pan the same size as a top and glaze the other side and they will be more like Krispy Kream.

This was not too difficult of a recipe, but there was a problem with the dough being too sticky. I had to add another cup of flour to make it workable, though the dough was still a bit sticky afterwards, however, at the same time I didn't want to add too much flour either. The other problem was how flavor-less these doughnuts were. Yes, they were light and fluffy but had NO taste/flavor whatsoever. I had to add cinnamon to my glaze because the doughnuts tasted like nothing. It took me about 3 1/2 hours from start to finish (I only fried about 8 doughnuts to test it out). After that I stopped because the doughnuts didn't taste like anything. Maybe if this recipe called for nutmeg or something, it would probably end up tasting a little better. But time to keep searching for another doughnut recipe.

Made this for some friends tonight. Without knowing the title, they said that they tasted just like Krispy Kreme!

Made these doughnuts today, they were good but not quit Krispy Kreme quality. The dough had a good light texture but something was lacking in the flavor of the dough. It tasted to much like plain bread :(( Thanks for sharing!
