| Yield: | 24 cookies (8 to 12 servings) |
Ingredients
- Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
- 2 cups complete pancake mix, such as Bisquick or Aunt Jemima
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar, plus more for dusting
- 5 drops red gel food coloring, plus more as needed
- 24 chocolate sandwich cookies, such as Oreo
Instructions
- Heat 2 to 3 inches of oil in a Dutch oven or deep cast-iron skillet to 365 degrees F.
- Mix the pancake mix, cocoa and confectioners’ sugar in a medium bowl. Add the amount of water called for in the pancake mix package directions plus 5 drops red food coloring. Whisk together until well combined. Add more food coloring as needed to turn the batter a deep red.
- Dip about a third of the cookies in the batter, turning to coat. Let the excess batter drip back into the bowl, then carefully add the cookies to the hot oil. Fry until puffed and crisp, turning once, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate. Repeat with the remaining cookies in two more batches, allowing the oil to return to 365 degrees between batches.
- Dust the cookies with confectioners’ sugar and serve hot

Reviews
Third try was a charm with this dish, but I was finally able to get it right. They were pretty yummy, so my persistence paid off.
First time made them. Very good. I would advise eating them soon after frying them. Although I ate one the next day and was edible!
This was my first time eating/making fried Oreos and it was AMAZING!!! highly recommended
Omg yummmmmm my picky future exhusband even loved them.
I made these today and they are soo good!!! Everyone loved them. Made a cream cheese dipping sauce to go with them.
