2 eggs
1 c. sugar, divided
1 T. shortening, melted
1 c. milk
1 t. vanilla extract
3-1/2 c. all-purpose flour
2 t. baking powder
1/8 t. salt
1/2 t. cinnamon
oil for deep frying
In a mixing bowl, beat eggs until light; blend in 1/2 cup sugar, shortening, milk and vanilla. Set aside. Combine flour, baking powder and salt in another mixing bowl; stir into egg mixture to make a soft dough. Mix together cinnamon and remaining sugar; set aside. Heat several inches oil to 365 degrees in a deep saucepan. Drop dough into hot oil by teaspoonfuls, a few at a time. Fry until doughnuts turn themselves over and are golden on all sides. Drain on paper towels; roll in cinnamon mixture while still warm. Makes 3 dozen.
