SOUR CREAM DOUGHNUTS 
1 c. sugar
3 eggs
1 c. sour cream
1 tsp. vanilla
2 tbsp. Crisco oil
3 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
Dash of nutmeg

Beat sugar and eggs thoroughly. Add sour cream and vanilla. Mix well. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Turn onto floured board and knead. Then roll to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut with floured donut cutter. Dough should be fairly soft. Fry in deep fat, 375 degrees.

Turn donuts as soon as they rise to top of fat and occasionally as they fry so that they will cook uniformly on both sides. Drain on paper towel. Makes 24-28 doughnuts.

Mmmm, good stuff. I covered some of mine in icing sugar and some in a glaze of icing sugar and water and they were pretty dang good. I can't speak for the accuracy of the amount of donuts because we made around 22 and then a bunch of donut holes too, because donut holes are awesome. I've never made donuts before but these turned out great, yummy and pretty easy to make too with some siblings cutting as I fried them! Will make again.
