Add the eggs, dissolved yeast, flour, nutmeg (optional), and salt to the mixture, stirring until smooth
Place the dough on a greased surface and cover
Let it rest in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours or overnight
Divide the dough into two parts and roll out each part thinly on a floured surface
Cut the dough into rounds of 7 cm in diameter, and then cut another round in half to form the rolls
Let them rest until they have doubled in size
Fry the rolls in hot oil until golden brown, draining on paper towels
Mix the confectioner's sugar, remaining milk (1/3 cup), and vanilla, beating until smooth
