Ingredients:
- 1 package of Oreo cookies
- 1 cup pancake mix
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the pancake mix, milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Heat the Oil:
- In a deep frying pan or a medium-sized pot, pour in enough vegetable oil to submerge the Oreos. Heat the oil to 350°F (175°C). You can use a thermometer to ensure the oil is at the right temperature.
- Dip the Oreos:
- Using a fork or a pair of tongs, dip each Oreo cookie into the batter, making sure it is fully coated.
- Fry the Oreos:
- Carefully place the coated Oreos into the hot oil. Fry them in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the batter is golden brown and crispy.
- Drain and Cool:
- Once fried, remove the Oreos from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Allow them to cool slightly.
- Serve:
- Dust the Deep Fried Oreos with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy them while they’re warm for the best taste and texture.
Tips for Perfect Deep Fried Oreos:
- Use Cold Oreos: Chilling the Oreos in the fridge for about 30 minutes before frying helps them hold their shape better during frying.
- Experiment with Flavors: Try using different flavors of Oreos or add a pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder to the batter for a unique twist.
- Safety First: Be cautious when frying, as hot oil can be dangerous. Make sure to fry in a well-ventilated area and keep a safe distance from the pot.
With this easy recipe, you can bring the fun and excitement of the carnival to your kitchen. Deep Fried Oreos are a delightful treat that’s sure to impress your family and friends!
