Equipment
- Dutch oven or deep skillet
- Paper Towels
Ingredients
- 15 fun-sized Snickers bars 1 full bag
- 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 degrees. 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 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.
