DEEP-FRIED CANDY BARS

1 egg
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
Chocolate-covered candy bars (Mars, Snickers, Zero, Almond Joy, Twix or Kit Kat)
4 cups oil for frying
Bamboo skewers

Combine egg, milk and vegetable oil in a cup. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix well with a whisk.

Cover and chill for a few minutes as you heat the oil. Use a chocolate covered candy bar for best results and make sure that it is chilled. Some bars work better if frozen. After the candy bars are chilled and skewered, remove the batter from the refrigerator.

Heat oil or shortening in a medium skillet to 375 degrees. Dip the chilled candy bar in the batter and gently place into the oil. Cook only until the outside is golden.

Remove and drain on brown paper. Allow to cool for a few minutes because the inside can easily burn your mouth.


Deep-Fried Twinkies Ingredients

For Twinkies:

• 6 Twinkies
• Popsicle sticks
• 4 cups vegetable oil
• Flour for dusting


For batter:

•1 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons vinegar
• 1 Tablespoon oil
• 1 cup flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt


Twinkie Directions

1. Chill or freeze Twinkies for several hours or overnight.
2. Heat 4 cups vegetable oil in deep fryer to about 375 degrees.

Batter Directions

1. Mix together milk, vinegar and oil.
2. In another bowl, blend flour, baking powder and salt.
3. Whisk wet ingredients into dry and continue mixing until smooth.
4. Refrigerate while oil heats.
5. Push stick into Twinkie lengthwise, leaving about 2 inches to use as a handle, dust with flour and dip into the batter.
6. Rotate Twinkie until batter covers entire cake.
7. Place carefully in hot oil. The Twinkie will float, so hold it under with a utensil to ensure even browning.
8. It should turn golden in 3 to 4 minutes.
9. Depending on the size of your deep fryer, you might be able to fry only one at a time, two at the most.
10. Remove Twinkie to paper towel and let drain. Remove stick and allow Twinkie to sit for about 5 minutes before serving.

Makes 6.

Variation: Slice Twinkie into 4 pieces. Flour and batter each before frying. With this treatment, one Twinkie will serve two people if accompanied by a sauce.

Ingredients:

• 1 10-ounce jar of seedless raspberry preserves
• 1 cup fresh or frozen mixed berries

2. Add 1 cup of fresh or frozen mixed berries.
3. Heat until sauce just simmers.
4. Cover; refrigerate until served.

Makes 1 1/2 cups.

FRIED OREOS
Posted by Marla at recipegoldmine.com

1 large bag Oreo cookies
2 cups pancake mix
1 1/2 cups of milk
2 eggs
4 tsp. oil

Preheat deep fryer to 375ºF.

Combine pancake mix, milk, eggs and oil. Mix until there are no lumps. Dip Oreos into batter, make sure both sides are covered and put the Oreos into the deep fryer. The cookie will float so make sure you flip the cookie over so that both sides are golden brown. The cookies will cook fast so watch them so they will not burn. Take out Oreos and enjoy. The cookies are best straight out of the deep fryer!! Makes about 54 Oreos.

That just doesnt sound good to me. I must admit however, that I think that Oreos are one of the world's most perfect foods, so...
