As suggested by other reviewers, I cut the amount of milk down to ½ cup and the amount of vinegar down to 1 TBS. I used butter instead of shortening, and I doubled the amount of vanilla. I shaped the dough/batter into little balls instead of donuts, and dropped them in the fryer in batches of nine (but my fryer is a huge 5-litre one!). It made about 26 donut holes, and they were great without icing sugar! The flavor reminded me of cruellers my father used to make when I was a kid, but you need to add more flour until it's almost like pie crust dough. You then roll it out on a floured board to about 1/4" thick, and cut it into little strips (about 1" wide by 4" or 5" long), which you then tie into little knots and twists, whatever shape you desire! Deep-fry until golden and tasty, dust with icing sugar if desired. It's fun for kids to do, and I remember making them with my sibs and father. Thanks for the memories, Stephy. :)
