Hello I was just at your website I have a questions for you.
I am looking for a doughnut recipe that the dough can be done
in a bread machine. It can be doughnut shaped or holes?
Any idea where I may find a recipe like this?
Thank you
Annette
Hi Annette,
There aren't many bread machine doughnut recipes online, but I did find three.
Not much difference between them. See below.

Bread Machine Doughnuts
3/4 cup milk or water
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup sugar
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons yeast
Vegetable oil for frying
Glaze (recipe follows)
Place ingredients in bread machine according to manufacturer and set
to dough setting. When cycle is done, remove dough, punch down and
let rest 10 minutes.
On lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/2-inch thick. Cut
with floured doughnut cutter. Place on lightly greased baking sheet
and let rise about 1 hour or until very light.
Fry in preheated 375*F (190*C) oil, a few at a time, about 1 minute,
each side. Drain on paper towel. Glaze or dust with powdered sugar,
as desired. Makes about 24 doughnuts.
Glaze:
3 cups powdered sugar
1 tablespoon butter, softened (optional)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
milk or water
Combine the powdered sugar, butter and vanilla in a mixing
bowl. Mix well and add just enough milk or water until glaze
is the consistency you desire. (A thinner consistency will
produce a thin glaze on the doughnuts or a thicker consistency
will be more like a frosting.)

Hi Suzanne,
No problem. Below are three different recipes. The first two are perhaps a
bit more authentic, but the bottom one, which uses Pillsbury dinner rolls,
won an award from Pillsbury.

Lithuanian Bacon Buns
Ingredients
1 1/2 lb Bacon, finely minced
1 Large Onion, finely minced
2 Cup Milk
1/2 lb Butter
1/2 Cup Sugar
1 Tsp Salt
1 Pkg Fresh or granulated yeast
5 Eggs, slightly beaten
6 Cup All-purpose flour
Directions
Put minced bacon and onion in skillet; cover with water. Cover pan; simmer
until water evaporates. Put complete mixture into a loaf pan and cool in
refrigerator.
Heat milk and butter; add sugar and salt. Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup of this
lukewarm liquid. Add eggs to remain- dissolved yeast mix. Stir in sifted
flour; beat vigorously. Cover; let rise in warm place until doubled (2
hours). Punch down; cover and let rise again.
Cut dough into four sections. Roll each section on lightly floured board
until 3/8-inch thick. Cut circles with cookie cutter. Put a teaspoon of
cooled bacon mixture in center of each; fold sides over. Put seam side down
on lightly greased cookie sheet; let rise again until doubled. Bake at 375
degrees for 15 to 20 minutes until lightly tanned; brush with mix of egg
yolk and 2 teaspoons water. Continue baking until golden brown, 10 minutes.
Serve hot or reheat. Makes 5 dozen. Try it with quick-acting yeast.
Deliciously persuasive.

Hope you can answer this question---
Do you have a recipe for prune kringle? A German couple owned
a bakery many years ago and made this pastry. It had a prune
filling and they designed the dough like a big pretzel,
although you could also get it as a long roll.
Sugar coated topping.
Thank you
Sandy
Hi Sandy,
I have three recipes for kringles with prunes. The first one below is by far the most authentic and the most complicated recipe.
The two below it are a bit easier.
Phaed
Old Danish Kringle - Dansk Smørekringle
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup milk
2 eggs -- beaten
2 packages dry yeast
1/2 cup soft butter
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon lemon rind -- grated
Cardamom seeds
Butter
Filling
Nuts -- ground
Powdered sugar
1 egg
Milk
11/2 cups water
11/2 cups raisins
1/2 cup soft butter
1/2 teaspoon cardamom
2 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons cream
1/2 cup almonds -- chopped
2 pounds prunes
11/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup claret wine
Mix salt and sugar. Add 3/4 cup milk and eggs.
Add yeast soaked in 1/4 cup milk heated to lukewarm.
Add butter, and cream all ingredients together with
fingers. Add enough flour to make a medium-stiff dough;
add grated lemon rind and cardamom seed.
On a lightly floured board spread the dough to an 8 × 12
rectangle. Dab the butter on half of this rectangle
(4 × 6 inches). Fold the unbuttered half of the dough over
the butter half. Roll out to 8 × 12 inches again.
Fold in half again. Roll again to an 8 × 12 rectangle.
Fold in half. Chill dough 2 hours in refrigerator.
Cut in 4 strips lengthwise. For 4 kringles, roll strips out
to 18 × 21/2 inches. Spread filling in to middle and fold ends
over. Sprinkle with ground nuts and powdered sugar.
Form in pretzel shapes and let rest in a warm place 45 minutes to rise.
Brush with a mixture of equal parts of egg and milk, sprinkle with
sugar and ground slivered almonds.
Bake in a preheated 375º oven 12 to 15 minutes, or until a delicate brown.

Good Morning well here I am again How do you temper chocolate?
Thanks again

Hi Grace,
Tempering chocolate is the art of melting it and then rehardening it so that it has a smooth, glossy appearance.
These four sites can explain how to do it much better than I can:
Tempering Chocolate 1
Tempering Chocolate 2
Tempering Chocolate 3
Tempering Chocolate 4
