Steps:

• Add water and yeast together in a your stand mixer and set aside for 10 minutes.
• Add in the milk, sugar, salt, eggs, shortening and 2 cups of the flour.
• Turn the stand mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes, then add in the rest of the flour and mix until just combined.
• Take the bowl out of the stand mixer and cover with a clean towel to let it rise for 1 hour.
• When you can push down on the dough and your fingerprint stays you're ready to move on to the next step.
• Working with half the dough at a time, roll it to 1/2 inch thick on a floured surface.
• Dip your doughnut cutter in flour and cut out a dozen doughnuts with each half of the dough and out onto wax paper.
• Let rise, covered, in a warm spot for 30-45 mins (I did 45)
• In a cast iron pan or other deep saucepan, heat the vegetable shortening to 375 degrees.
• Please use a thermometer to measure the temperature as this is a critical step.
• Fry the doughnuts on each side for 90 seconds.
• Drain on a cooling rack until you finish cooking them all then dip into the glaze.
• To make the glaze, add the powdered sugar, milk and corn syrup to a bowl and microwave for 30 seconds.
• Most importantly, eat with reckless abandon.
