Cake Doughnuts

This recipe comes from my Grandma M. (Doris.). She was well-known for her doughnuts. She had a couple of different types that she made. (Click for her "Raised Doughnut" recipe.) She would bake them and sell them to various bake shops and restaurants. This is one version which does not require yeast.
