Spice Balls

MARY AUSTIN
"These are very easy and quick to make. To make them even faster, you can make the dough the night before, cover and store in refrigerator overnight. That way in the morning all you have to do is heat your oil, cook and serve. Look like small puffed doughnut holes. I like them tossed in a plastic bag with cinnamon and sugar."

Directions

- In batches, drop the mixture by rounded teaspoonfuls into the hot oil. Fry on all sides, 2 to 4 minutes, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
- In a resealable plastic bag, mix 1 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. While still warm, place balls a few at a time into the bag, and toss to coat.

liked them, but not really donuts. Would probably make a good cake though.

I made these the other day when I had a craving for spice donuts. I used cider instead of milk and they came out great.

So good! Left out the mace, since I had none, and rolled them in cinnamon-sugar while still warm. My kids and husband loved them. Will definitely make again.

I liked the ones that I made a bit bigger. The small ones had more crunch than soft inside.

This was fantastically easy even though I had never deep fried anything in my life. I'm normally quite afraid of extremely hot oil and its volatility with temperature. Even at 350 degrees, thes...
