Notes: In my day, there wasn't a bakery any where close so these were a real treat to make at home.
I made these one day and as soon as I could fry them your dad and Kay Taft ate them. When I got the dough fried there weren't many left to glaze.
Aunt Clella Pace was a master at making these spudnuts, this is her recipe.
