After everyone got WASTED on the beer cupcakes (see above) our Super Bowl party fare started getting out of hand: the deep fryer broke out, and all hell broke loose.
It started out normally, with mozzarella and Oreos being the only items to hit the grease. But then we expanded our horizons: a Snickers bar made it in there, a fortune cookie, some bananas. And then, the unthinkable happened. I decided to take our culinary arts to the next level, under the established notion that anything deep-fried tastes good, and therefore anything that already tastes good that is then deep-fried must taste extra good.
So may I present to you: THE DEEP-FRIED CUPCAKE.
Believe it, friends: it did indeed taste extra good.
Who won the Super Bowl? I don’t remember. But the food tasted awesommeeee!
How-to for the deep-frying:
For the sweet stuff, my good friend John simply mixed up some pancake batter. Yes, 1 c. of the good ol’ Aunt Jemima boxed stuff, along with 1 egg, 1 c. milk, 2 tsp. oil (plus about 2 qt. more for the frying). That’ll roughly be enough for one package of Oreos, or 12 Oreos, 1 king-sized Snickers bar, 1 banana cut in five pieces, 1 fortune cookie, and a medium-sized Stout Cupcake. Be sure to include a stomach pump or a doctor who specializes in coronary bypass surgery for the after-party!
