How to Make Cookies & Cream Cheesecake Deep-Fried Oreos

Ingredients:

  • 1 package of Oreo cookies (about 15-20 cookies)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • Oil for frying
  • Optional: additional powdered sugar for dusting

Directions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined. This will be your cream filling.
  2. Take an Oreo cookie and gently twist it apart; spread or pipe a small amount of the cream filling onto the cream side of one half, then sandwich it back with the other half.
  3. In another bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and milk until you get a smooth batter.
  4. Heat oil in a deep skillet or deep fryer over medium heat.
  5. Once the oil is hot, dip each filled Oreo cookie into the batter, allowing excess batter to drip off.
  6. Carefully place the battered Oreos into the hot oil, frying a few at a time until golden brown (about 1-2 minutes per side).
  7. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried Oreos and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
  8. Serve warm and dust with powdered sugar if desired.

How to Serve Cookies & Cream Cheesecake Deep-Fried Oreos

Serve these delicious deep-fried Oreos warm. You can dust them with powdered sugar for extra sweetness. They also taste great with a scoop of ice cream or chocolate sauce on top!

How to Store Cookies & Cream Cheesecake Deep-Fried Oreos

These treats are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. For best results, reheat them in the oven to regain some crispiness.

Tips to Make Cookies & Cream Cheesecake Deep-Fried Oreos

  • Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying; test it by dropping a bit of batter in—if it sizzles, you’re good to go!
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan while frying; fry just a few at a time to ensure they cook evenly.
  • You can use any flavor of Oreo, like birthday cake or mint, for different tastes!

Variation

Feel free to add ingredients to your cream filling, like chocolate chips or crushed Oreos, to make it even more delicious!

FAQs

1. Can I bake instead of frying? Yes! You can bake them at 375°F (190°C) for about 10-12 minutes until golden, but they won’t be as crispy.

2. Can I use low-fat cream cheese? Yes, you can use low-fat cream cheese if you want a lighter version, but it might change the texture a bit.

3. How do I know when the oil is hot enough? You can use a thermometer; the oil should be about 350°F (175°C). If you don’t have one, drop a little batter in the oil; it should bubble right away!
