Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • To start creating your own deep fried Snickers, you will need:
  • 3 large farm-fresh eggs
  • ¼ cups granulated cane sugar
  • 2¼ cups whole milk at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 3⅔ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 16 standard full-sized Snickers bars
  • Peanut oil for deep frying
  • Powdered sugar for dusting

Method
 

Step 1: Prepare the Mixture
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs and sugar. Whisk them together until smooth. Next, whisk in the milk and vanilla extract, blending well.
Step 2: Combine Dry Ingredients
  1. In another bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. These ingredients are your dry mix.
Step 3: Merge the Batters
  1. Gradually add your dry mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir until you get a thick batter. Make sure there are no lumps. It should be smooth and ready to coat the Snickers bars.
Step 4: Heat the Oil
  1. In a deep fryer or a large pot, heat the peanut oil to 350°F (about 175°C). Use enough oil to submerge the Snickers bars entirely.
Step 5: Coat the Snickers
  1. While the oil is heating, unwrap your Snickers bars. Dip each one into the batter until it’s fully covered. Allow excess batter to drip off.
Step 6: Fry the Bars
  1. Carefully place the battered Snickers into the hot oil one at a time. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Avoid overcrowding the pot to maintain oil temperature.
Step 7: Drain Excess Oil
  1. Once fried, use a slotted spoon to remove the bars and place them on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
Step 8: Dust with Powdered Sugar
  1. While still warm, dust the fried Snickers with powdered sugar. This adds a delightful sweetness and visual appeal.

Notes

1. Temperature Check: Keep an eye on the oil temperature. If it's too hot, the batter will burn before the candy melts.
2. Batter Thickness: Ensure your batter is thick enough to cling to the Snickers bars. Adjust with flour if needed.
3. Experiment with Flavor: Try adding spices like nutmeg or even a dash of chili powder to the batter for subtle heat.
4. Storage: Fried Snickers are best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for a day.
5. Presentation: Serve with a scoop of ice cream and drizzle chocolate sauce for extra flair.
