people love fried. they love you for making it. they love you for serving it. they kinda want to hug you. they gaze upon you with admiration and awe. their gaze moves from you to the fried blah blah blah and they get all mouthwatery googly eyed. some even get a little romantic.
i don't blame them. i get it.
last night i was the girl serving fried oreos. fried what? yep oreo cookies, fried. evile.
(btw, people also like things served on a stick. so next time you're throwin a party and feel like doing all the work yourself, just fry stuff or put a stick in it. or put a stick in it and fry it. hell, double up and you'll get loads of kudos. besides, once you commit to the heat and mess and smell and possible fire danger a fryer provides, you might as well batter and fry everything in sight.)
one of my fabulous clients asked me to create state fair food for a themed event. as you well know, i love a challenge.
sometimes luck's on my side though. and this didn't turn out to be a challenge at all. it was easy as pie, as they [and by they, i mean people who've never made pie] say.
it was easy as fried oreos.
so, here ya go. i'm sharing on this happy friday, an easy recipe because sharing time's a happy time. and i love to spread the happy. whatever. i'm cheesyhappy to be off work for a couple days.
these were the hit of the party, as you can imagine. i totally recommend making these for breakfast on sunday. try it. and this batter is a good catch-all recipe for frying fillintheblank pretty much whatever i think.
