Round Rock Donuts Recipe
The Round Rock Donuts Recipe typically starts with a combination of basic ingredients such as sugar, flour, eggs, lard (or vegetable shortening), sour cream, and leavening agents like baking soda and baking powder.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups Sugar
- ⅓ cup Sour cream
- ¾ cup Lard
- 3 Eggs
- 1 ½ teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 4 ½ cups All-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 Quart Vegetable oil
- ⅓ teaspoon Baking Powder
Instructions
- Make a soft dough by mixing sugar, sour cream, lard, eggs, salt, baking soda, flour, and vanilla extract together.
- You will need to knead the dough for 8-10 minutes on a lightly floured surface.
- Using a cookie cutter or donut cutter, cut out desired shapes from the dough after it is rolled out to a thickness of ½ inch.
- A deep pot should be heated over medium heat with 3 inches of oil. Put the batches of donuts into the oil after it has reached 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Ensure that each side is golden brown by frying it for 2-3 minutes on each side.
- Place the donuts on paper towels to drain and cool after you remove them from the oil.
- Using a medium bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract, and water until smooth.
- Place cooled donuts on a wire rack to cool and harden after they have been dipped in glaze.
