I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'dough made effortlessly' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'fix my eyes on a' is the wordplay.
'fix' indicates anagramming the letters.
'my'+'eyes'+'on'+'a'='myeyesona'
'myeyesona' anagrammed gives 'EASY MONEY'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for easy money that I've seen before include "Readily gained income" , "Good pay for little work" , "Cash obtained with little effort" , "Quick buck" , "Can one get this for jam" .)
