Making the dough:
In a big bowl, mix yeast in lukewarm water. Mix together milk, sugar, salt, eggs, melted butter, and 2 cups of flour. Mix until the mixture is even.
Add more flour slowly until the dough is soft.
Beginning:
Put the dough in a bowl with oil, turning it over to cover the top with oil. Cover the dough and leave it in a warm place until it doubles in size, which should take about 1 hour.
Making Doughnuts:
After the dough has risen, press it down and place it on a surface with flour. Flatten it until it is about 1/2 inch thick.
Cut out doughnuts using a doughnut cutter coated with flour and place them on baking sheets that have been greased. Cover the dough and let it sit until it doubles in size, which should take around 30 minutes.
Cooking the doughnuts:
Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot until it reaches a temperature of 375°F.
Cook the doughnuts in hot oil until they are golden brown on both sides, a few at a time.
After frying, place the doughnuts on paper towels to soak up extra oil.
Glazing is a technique used in art and construction to apply a thin, shiny layer of a substance like paint or glass.
Mix the melted butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and hot water in a bowl until it's smooth.
Put the hot doughnuts in the glaze, making sure they are completely covered, and then allow them to dry on wire racks.
