Why I Love This Recipe
These Puff pastry type doughnuts were once a New Years Eve and New Years day treat. They seem to have vanished, but all one has to do is make them with this recipe, and experience them, anyway.

1 cup water
1/2 cup butter
pinch of saltt
1 cup sifted all purpose flour
4 eggs, beaten
oil for deep frying
Frosting:
1 1/4 cups powder sugar, sifted
3 Tablespoons rum or 1 to 3 tablespoons Rum Extract
1 Tablespoon water
Directions
Cut sheet of baking partchment paper to fit a deep fying pan;
brush with oil.
To make cream puff paste: Heat water gently with butter and salt in a medium sauce pan, until the butter is melted. Increase heat and bring to boiling. Add the flour all at once; remove from heat. Stir until the dough comes away from sides of pan and forms a ball. Return to heat and cook
1 minute. constantly stirring. Place ina medium bowl; cool slightly. Stir in eggs, 1 at a time.
Heat oil to 360 F (180C) in a deep frying pan (or wok). Place puff pase in a pastry bg fitted with a large fluted nozzel. Pipe rings onto oiled baking parchement ; the rings should not be too large.

Repeat until the rings have all been cooked. Cool. Place on sheets of Reynolds Wrap or antoher brand of foil, for frosting.
