Very easy. Tasted good over here. I cut the recipe in half and used butter instead of shortening. I cut the dough into 8 pieces and rolled them into circles before frying them in oil on the stove. Then powdered sugar after they cooled.

Everyone else has such good reviews, so I must have done something wrong. I followed the advice of other reviewers and put let milk in, but somehow I ended up making these bland doughnut "cookies". I gave them to the dog, I'll try another recipe.

The doughnuts had a good taste and they were very light and fluffy. I was not happy with working with the dough as it was very soft and hard to roll. I will try the drop method next time. I also rolled in sugar instead of powdered sugar.

This recipe is very simple, quick, and tasty, and makes a perfect basic cake doughnut recipe. The dough doesn't have much flavor on its own, so for myself I would season them with cinnamon, citrus, vanilla, etc. If you roll each doughnut quickly in flour before frying you'll get a nice, crispy exterior.

This recipe was OK in a pinch. They didn't really taste like doughnuts - however the kids loved them (but anything covered in sugar qualifies for them!) I probably won't make this recipe again.

I didn't think these were very good. They came out dense and more like a fried cookie than a doughnut. The taste isn't too bad but if you want fluffy doughnuts than try something with yeast. I didn't feel like waiting for them to rise so I made these. They are very easy and quick to make so I will give it that much! :-)

I love this recipe, the taste is great and was exactly what I was looking for. The only changes I made was, I added an extra 1 cup of flour to the dough and it rolled out smoothly. Also, I added 1 teaspoon of ice cold water and it set up quickly. Being I had a house full of kids to feed I did several variations. I did the usual donuts and holes along with whole donuts that I later cut halfway open and put in jelly, cream cheese, and vanilla pudding. They turned out awesome and I will surely be making these again.
