Roll dough on lightly floured surface to 1/2 inch thick. Cut with doughnut cutter. Place on a pan and let rise 1 hour. Fry in 350* oil. Drain on paper towels. Combine powdered sugar, vanilla and enough warm water to make thin glaze (start with just a few Tablespoons water so the glaze doesn't end up runny) Dip doughnuts in glaze or brush on with a pastry brush.
