Spiced Doughnut Holes

In a medium bowl combine 2 cups of the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, allspice, salt, cardamom, and mace. In a small bowl combine milk and melted butter. In a large mixing bowl combine eggs, sugar, and vanilla; beat with an electric mixer about 3 minutes or until thick.

Add flour mixture and milk mixture alternately to egg mixture, beating after each addition just until combined. Stir in remaining 1 cup flour. Cover dough; chill for 2 hours.

Sprinkle a 15x10x1-inch pan lightly with flour. With floured hands, shape dough into 1-1/2-inch balls; place in prepared pan.

Fry doughnuts, 4 to 5 at a time, in deep hot fat (365 degrees F) for 4-1/2 minutes or until a dark golden brown, turning occasionally. Remove doughnuts with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining doughnuts.

While warm, gently shake doughnut holes in a bag with powdered sugar, granulated sugar or cinnamon/sugar mixture.

Cool slightly; drizzle Glaze over holes or dip holes in Glaze. Allow excess glaze to drip off dipped holes and place on wire rack to dry. Makes about 30 doughnut holes.
