Prep Time:30 minutes
Cook Time:15 minutes
Total Time:45 minutes

Equipment

  • Deep fryer or Dutch oven or deep skillet
  • Paper Towels
  • Skewers

Ingredients

  • 15 fun-sized Snickers bars 1 full bag (the full-size bars are a bit too much)
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 1 quart peanut or vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Prepare the pan or deep fryer. In a deep skillet, Dutch oven, or deep fryer, preheat the oil to 375℉. Line a baking sheet with paper towels for the finished bars.
  • Make the batter. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, oil, and granulated sugar. Stir in the milk and whisk. The mixture will resemble pancake batter: a few small lumps are okay. Pour it into a glass for easy dunking.
  • Dip and fry. One or two at a time, skewer the candy bars, dip them into the batter, and gently place them into the oil.
  • Fry. Fry for 3 minutes in the deep fryer or 2 minutes per side in a skillet or Dutch oven. When they are golden brown, remove the paper towel-lined baking sheet. Work in batches until all the bars are fried.
  • Add sugar and serve. Dust generously with powdered sugar. Serve immediately.

Notes

This will go best if you dunk, then immediately fry, then remove to a paper-towel lined plate. Have a station set up before you begin.
Feel free to use Milky Way or Mars bars instead.
