How To Make Deep Fried Cookies & Cream Biscuits
It’s so easy to make tasty deep fried cookies & cream biscuits. First, the batter ingredients are mixed in a bowl. Next, the biscuits are dunked into the prepared batter, before being deep fried to golden perfection on the outside with a delicious melting middle.
Step 1: Make Batter
In a large bowl, add 120 grams self raising flour, 30 grams caster sugar and a pinch of sea salt. Mix briefly, then add 1 egg and 125 millilitres milk. Whisk until combined, adding a touch more milk if necessary until you have a medium-thick batter. A few lumps are ok.
Step 2: Fry Biscuits
Heat Oil for deep frying to 170C. When the oil is hot, carefully dip 5 cookies & cream biscuits into the batter and drop carefully into the hot oil. Fry for about 2 minutes, turning once or twice until the deep fried biscuits are golden brown. Remove from the oil with tongs or a slotted spoon, allowing any excess oil to drain off.
Step 3: Serve
Arrange the deep fried cookies & cream biscuits on a serving plate. Dust with 1 tablespoon icing sugar and serve warm.
Recipe Tips For Deep Fried Cookies & Cream Biscuits
- Pancakes: Leftover batter mix can be used to make pancakes. Simply heat a dry non stick pan over a medium heat and pour a ladleful of batter into the pan. Cook for around 1 minute, or until bubbles for across the surface. Flip and cook for a further 30-40 seconds, transfer to a serving plate and keep warm with a clean kitchen towel. Repeat the process until all of the pancakes are cooked.
