Step-by-step
Grown-up steps: This recipe involves deep frying, so stay by your young chefs at all times they are using the stove. Give a hand in carefully placing the Oreos in and transfer the cookies out of the hot oil to avoid splatter.
- Add 4 cups of oil to a medium pot and turn heat to medium low. Line a sheet pan or a plate with paper towels set aside.
- In a bowl, combine pancake mix, egg, oil, and milk. Dip Oreos into batter.
- Carefully place a few Oreos into the hot oil, frying a couple at a time. Fry for 2 -3 minutes or until golden.
- Cautiously remove from oil and transfer to paper towels. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
