Stir together scalded milk, sugar, and salt in a large bowl; set aside to cool until tepid. Dissolve yeast in warm water in a small bowl; let stand until creamy, about 5 minutes.

Stir yeast mixture into milk and flour mixture, then mix in butter and eggs. Mix in remaining flour mixture, 1/2 cup at a time. When dough is firm enough, turn it onto a floured surface and knead for 3 to 4 minutes. Place into an oiled bowl, cover, and allow dough to rise until doubled, 30 to 35 minutes.

Heat 1-inch-deep oil in a deep, heavy frying pan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Stir together confectioners' sugar and 6 tablespoons milk in a bowl until smooth. Dip warm donuts into glaze; set aside to cool.
