Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 package Oreo cookies (about 14 cookies)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- Vegetable oil, for frying
Dry Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Flavoring and Finishing:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
- Create a smooth, lump-free batter by whisking dry ingredients separately from wet ingredients, then blending them together until achieving a silky consistency.
- Preheat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or heavy pot to precisely 350°F, ensuring consistent temperature for optimal frying.
- Submerge each Oreo completely in the prepared batter, allowing excess to drip off, guaranteeing an even, thin coating.
- Gently slide batter-covered Oreos into the hot oil using a slotted spoon, maintaining a safe distance to prevent oil splatter.
- Fry cookies for 2-3 minutes, rotating occasionally to achieve an evenly golden-brown exterior with a crispy texture.
- Transfer fried Oreos onto paper towels, allowing excess oil to drain and prevent sogginess.
- While cookies are still warm, generously dust with powdered sugar, creating a delicate, sweet finish that complements the crispy exterior.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the optimal temperature and textural contrast between the crunchy shell and soft, melted cookie interior.
Notes
- Choose high-quality vegetable oil with a high smoke point to prevent burning and ensure crispy results.
- Maintain consistent oil temperature around 350F for even frying and perfect golden-brown coating.
- Pat Oreos dry before dipping to help batter adhere better and prevent excess oil absorption.
- Keep batches small to maintain oil temperature and prevent cookies from sticking together during frying.
