• Add in remaining flour. Beat gently to make soft dough.
• Cover and place in refrigerator for at least 1 hour, to make dough easier to handle.
• Flour a large work surface and rolling pin.
• Roll dough out to 1/2-inch thick.

• Reroll and cut trimmings until all dough is used.
• Pour oil into a deep fryer to a depth of about 3 to 4 inches.
• Heat oil to vegetable oil to 350°F as measured by a candy thermometer.
• When oil is hot, gently place 4 or 5 dough rings at a time into oil. Do not crowd.
• Turn with a pancake turner as they rise to surface. Then turn often until golden brown.
• Lift doughnuts from oil with slotted spoon. Place on a paper towel-covered plate to drain.
• Repeat until all doughnuts are fried.
• Serve as is or sprinkle with confectioners' sugar while still warm.
