DOUGHNUTS.
One coffee-cup granulated sugar, one-fourth coffee-cup butter, one coffee-cup milk, four eggs, two tablespoons water, two teaspoons baking powder, one teaspoon salt, one nutmeg. Cream the sugar and butter as for cake, add the eggs, well beaten, then milk, water, salt and nutmeg; next flour enough to make stiff for handling. Do not roll out all at once, but keep adding a little fresh every time, and roll half an inch thick. Add baking powder with the flour and have your lard just right. In about an hour after cooking, roll in powdered sugar. Keep well covered in an earthen jar. — Mrs. Guilbault.
