Ingredients

1 ounce melted butter
1 ounce lemon juice
1 ounce rum
1 quart water
1 quart eggs
1/2 quart sugared eggs yolks
1/2 ounce salt
4 1/2 ounces milk powder
1 pound granulated sugar
1 pound, 10 ounces shortening
1 pound cake flour
9 1/2 pounds high gluten flour
1 pound yeast
Vegetable oil, for deep frying

Directions

Mix all ingredients, except vegetable oil together in a large mixer fitted with a dough hook for 11 to 12 minutes or until dough reaches 78 degrees F. Set dough aside to rise for 30 to 45 minutes.

Divide and round dough into golf ball-sized pieces, put onto sheet pan and proof until the balls grow to around the size of soft balls, about 30 to 45 minutes.

Preheat a fryer to 360 degrees F.

Deep fry in vegetable oil until golden brown. Cool. Using a piping bag fitted with a plain tip, fill with your favorite preserves and top with powdered sugar.

Excellent Paczki
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I actually had the honor of tasting these paczki made by the Restaurant Oaza in Chicago owners name was Irene Idzik. They... were my all time favorite.,,this restaurant no longer exixts as far as I know. I wish this recipe could be modified for use at home. 9 pds of this and a quart of that, seems unreal I"d hate to waste ingredients if this recipe didn't work .Read more

How big is your mixer?
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

10lb of sugar? 1qt eggs(how many?) 1/2qt sugared yolks(how much sugar?) and 1lb yeast(how many packets?) I think this needs... to be down-sized a lot more. I'd like to try it, but I hope someone checks these messages, and can adjust it. Thanks, K.M.Read more
