4. Turn the mixture into a stainless steel bowl and cool slightly.
5. Add the eggs in 3 stages, beating well between additions.
6. Place the dough in a piping bag fitted with a large star tip.

FRYING

The doughnuts may be finished in either of two ways:

Method 1

 Pipe the mixture directly into a deep fryer heated to 340°F (170°C), cutting off the dough in 3-in. (7–8-cm) pieces using a knife dipped in the hot fat. Fry until puffed and golden. Drain on kitchen paper.

Method 2

Pipe 2-in. (5-cm) circles onto parchment paper. (To make uniform shapes, mark 2-in./5-cm circles on the paper by tracing around a 2-in./5-cm cutter with a pencil. Turn the paper over and use the outlines as a guide.) Freeze. Fry the frozen units as in method
