It doesn’t get much better than fried foods! ESPECIALLY when those fried foods are SWEET! Copy cat recipes of the popular Fair foods – fried Oreos and fried Twinkies, etc… you have GOT to try making these delicious treats for yourself! Easy AND impressive and OH SO delicious.

sweet deep fried treats are a favorite food at fairs, they are easy to make at home and always a huge hit - recipe and video tutorial

I love love LOVE fair foods and of course I’ve tried fried Oreos and Twinkies before, I enjoyed them and they were super fun to make at home, but I have to say the COOKIE DOUGH blew me out of the water, like seriously if you only make one make that one….

word of warning, I tried to also fry regular sized peanut butter cups and cadbury eggs.  they were so heavy they sank, the batter fell off and trying to get them out was almost impossible so the chocolate melted and burned on the heating elements… It was a smelly mess.  I think if you are going to try anything chocolate covered (like the mini snickers) it needs to be UBER mini and small so it floats.  I’m willing to try the peanut butter cups again, but the mini ones, not the small, but the MINI…

 

deep fried battered oreos are a delicious sweet treat that everyone loves, personalize with any flavor of oreoa fried twinkie is a warm treat with a gooey center, it's delicious and one everyone loves

 

 

 

my favorite fried dessert, cookie dough balls, warm, gooey, soft and divinemini candy bars dipped in batter and fried for a sweet treat

SO the cookie dough, you can go two ways, store bought or homemade.  I tried both and at the end of the day all that matters is that it’s a thick recipe, and that it’s one you love.  Experiment.  Tried a few different ones and see what you think! I went with classic chocolate chip over my oatmeal chocolate chip, since the fried batter is heavy enough I didn’t want to go double heavy with so much grain… but it’s totally up to you.

    These look amazing! I don’t have a deep fryer but I was planning to use a regular old stainless steel pot, which kind of oil is best to use? Thanks!

      whatever oil you have around that can handle the high heat – so I avoid olive oil and use canola

    Can I use self rising instead of all purpose?

      the recipe doesn’t call for any rising agents – otherwise you could leave out the rising agent and use the self rising flour instead – but in this case if you used it it would def change the outcome.

    I am looking for a deep fryer very similar to yours for a concession stand! What brand is the one in this video?

    Thank you so much!!! I have been scouring the internet searching for a fried Oreo recipe that did not include “pancake mix.” These are great! We love fried Oreos and cookie dough is next on our list. We’ve tried Snickers and twix (twix won that) and twinkees, of course. We’ve done fried butter, which was just eh. We also want to try marshmallows and give them a quick shake in sugar and cinnamon when they first come out. We have a problem. 😀
    But anyway, thanks for the actual recipe.

      I made these s’mores – https://ashleemarie.com/deep-fried-smores-recipe-video/ you have to be careful as the marshmallow will melt if there is a hole in the batter or if you cook them too long so be careful
