Preheat the fryer. In a small mixing bowl, whisk the yeast, 1 teaspoon  
sugar, and 1/4 cup of the warm water. Set the mixture aside. In an electric  
mixer, and the eggs and whip until the eggs are thick and pale yellow in  
color. Change the mixer attachment to a dough hook. With the machine running  
slowly add the yeast mixture, melted butter, milk, and half−and−half. Add  
the salt. Add the flour, 1 cup at a time. Mix until the mixture forms a soft  
ball, leaves the sides of the bowl, and climbs up the dough hook. Remove the  
dough and turn into a lightly oiled bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap  
and set the bowl in a warm, draft free space. Let the dough rise until  
double in size, about 1 1/2 hours. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface  
and dust the surface of the dough with flour. With a rolling pin, roll out  
the dough, about 1/4−inch thick, in the shape of a rectangle. Cover the  
dough with a greased piece of plastic wrap (this will prevent the dough from  
sticking to the wrap) and let the dough rise until double in size, about 1  
hour. Using a sharp French knife, cut the dough into 1−inch squares. Fry a  
couple of the squares at a time, until golden−brown, about 3 to 4 minutes,  
stirring constantly for overall browning. Remove the doughnuts from the oil  
and drain on a paper−lined plate. Roll the doughnuts in sugar and serve  
warm. This recipe yields a couple of dozen doughnuts.
