Deep-Fried Cookies

Ingredients:

• 1 package refrigerated jumbo biscuit dough
• 16 Chocolate sandwich cookies
• Cooking oil, such as vegetable or canola
• Powdered sugar

Directions:

1. Heat oil in a small pan over low to medium heat. Oil temperature should reach approximately 350˚F.
2. While oil is warming, remove biscuits from canister. Flatten each biscuit and cut it in half. You will now have 16 pieces of dough.
3. Place a cookie on top of each flattened biscuit portion. Wrap the biscuit dough around the cookie, pinching to seal the dough well.
4. Using tongs or a spoon, gently add dough-wrapped cookie to hot oil. Fry each one until golden brown, being sure to brown all sides, approximately 2-3 minutes. Bubbles should appear around the edges of the dough.
5. Carefully remove from hot oil, placing each cookie on a rack or plate lined with a paper towel. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Air Fry Instructions: Preheat air fryer to 370°. Place prepared cookies in the air fryer leaving enough space between them for them to expand. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown on top. Remove and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
