Uh-Oh! I Can't Seem To Find What You Are Looking For.

I can't seem to find what you think you're looking for.

What the heck just happened?

Well unfortunately, I think you've just experienced what we webmasters refer to as a "Big Problem." This could be caused by several factors including:

The material you are looking for is no longer available.
The material you are looking for was really never available.
The material you are looking for is around here someplace, but we have cleverly hidden it in a location called "somewhere else".

What should I do now?

Well, that depends. If you believe the material is actually on this site, we would recommend that you click the logo at the top of the page and try again. If you think the material is in fact not on this site, well, try "Googleing" for it. Also, you could hit "F5" or "refresh" to repeatedly reload the page. That rarely works, but you never know.

OK, who's fault is this anyway? Who can I blame for this mess?

In the most existential sense, isn't it really everyone's fault? No. More than likely it's your darn fault. However, if you would use the contact form and explain the error you received we would be very appreciative and happily remove you from our "people who caused massive, time consuming irreparable errors" list. That's one list you don't want to be on.

     1 tablespoon dry yeast (1 pkg)
     4 tablespoon sugar
     3/4 cup lukewarm milk (or water for pareve)
     2-1/2 cups flour
     pinch of salt (does it hurt the salt to get pinched :-))
     1 teaspoon cinnamon
     2 eggs, separated
     2 tablespoon butter (or pareve margarine)
     Apricot, strawberry or some type of preserves
     Sugar
     Vegetable oil

Mix yeast, 2 tablespoons sugar and milk. Let sit till it bubbles. Sift flour, mix in remaining sugar, salt, cinnamon, egg yolks and yeast mixture.

Knead dough until it forms a ball. Add butter or margarine, knead until butter is well absorbed. Cover with a towel and let rise overnight in fridge.

Roll out the dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch. Cut dough into 24 rounds with a juice glass or other object about 2 inches in diameter. Place1/2 teaspoon of preserves in ceter of 12 rounds. Top with the other 12. Press down at edges, sealing with egg whites. Crimping wtih the thumb and second finger is best. Let rise for about 30 minutes.

Heat 2 inches of oil to about 375 degrees. Drop the doughnuts into the hot oil, about 5 at a time. Turn to brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
