Steps:
- 1. In saucepan combine milk, sugar, salt, and shortening and heat until shortening melts. DO NOT LET MIXTURE BOIL.
- 2. Cool mixture to lukewarm add yeast and stir until dissolved.
- 3. Add 2 cups of flour mix well and then add the rest of flour. Mix till smooth.
- 4. Place in greased bowl until doubled, cover with damp cloth. To help speed up I always place bowl in sink and fill it to half way up the bowl with hot water, just make sure not to get any in the bowl.
- 5. One at a time place into fryer, or pot which ever, until dough rises to the surface. Turn and fry on the other side until light brown.
- 6. Drain on paper towel and sprinkle with powder sugar

[email protected]I'm not a big fan of cinnamon sugar, so I used a mixture of sugar and nutmeg instead. The elephant ears were still delicious, but I think I would have preferred them with the cinnamon sugar coating.
