Turn dough onto well floured, cloth covered board; coat lightly with flour.
Roll gently ⅜ inch thick.
Cut with floured doughnut cutter.
Slide doughnuts into hot oil with wide spatula.
Turn doughnuts as they rise to surface.
Fry until golden brown, 1 to 1½ min. on each side.
Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
Serve plain, sugared, or frosted.
Buttermilk Doughnuts: Decrease baking powder to 2 teaspoons and beat in 1 teaspoon baking soda.
