4-Ingredient Deep-Fried Cookie Dough
Ingredients:
- 1 package refrigerated jumbo biscuit dough
- Prepared cookie dough, store-bought or homemade
- Cooking oil, such as vegetable or canola
- Powdered sugar
*This recipe works well with other sweet fillings – such as a mini candy bar, an Oreo, a buckeye, etc. Try placing a different filling in each piece of dough to make an assortment of deep-fried treats. The instructions are the same regardless of what item is inside the biscuit dough.
Instructions:
- Heat oil in a small pan over low to medium heat. Oil temperature should reach approximately 350 degrees.
- While oil is warming, remove biscuits from canister.
- Flatten each biscuit and cut it in half. You will now have 16 pieces of dough.
- Place a small scoop of cookie dough on top of each flattened biscuit portion. Wrap the biscuit dough around the cookie dough. Pinch the dough to seal well.
- Using tongs or a spoon, gently add cookie dough balls to hot oil. Fry each one until golden brown, being sure to brown all sides, approximately 2-3 minutes. Bubbles should appear around the edges of the dough.
- Carefully remove from hot oil, placing each cookie dough ball on a rack or plate lined with a paper towel.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
- Enjoy!
