Cream Doughnuts

1 cup sour cream 1 cup sugar 2 eggs

1 level teaspoon soda

1/8 spoon salt flour enough to roll soft

Method:

Beat the sour cream and the sugar and salt together, add beaten eggs and beat till creamy. Add the soda dissolved in one teaspoon-ful boiling water, then the flour. Roll gently to one and one-half inches thick, cut with a doughnut cutter, drop carefully into bubbling deep fat and let brown. Remove to brown paper, let the grease be absorbed, then sprinkle them with powdered sugar. Nutmeg may be added to the dough if wished. This amount makes about three dozen doughnuts.
