Deep-fried Oreos - Guest post for Noshing with the Nolands

When fellow food blogger, Tara Noland of Noshing with the Nolands, put the call out a couple of months back for guest posts during Stampede, the Calgary equivalent of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, you know I had to step up.  Calgary and Houston, my hometown, have much in common.  Both are cities that oil built, with a great heritage of cowboys and rodeo.  And Houston and Calgary have fabulous carnival food, including barbecue of all kinds, things on a stick, and heart-stopping fried everything.  My younger sister and I were researching and brainstorming (imagine dueling banjos but with laptops) what I should make and deep-fried Oreos came up.  They sounded perfect for this post. 

Deep-fried Oreos.  Roll that around on your tongue for a bit.  Uh-huh.  That's what I'm talking about.  Doughnut batter engulfing an innocent Oreo, deep-fried till the melty double stuff melts.  Yes, I said melt twice.  Have another quick look at the photo above. That's right.  This is a guest post, so that means you have to head on over to Noshing with the Nolands to read it.   Follow this link and git along now!  

Enjoy!

  2. Yum! These look absolutely amazing. I've never seen a Deep fried Oreo but I can imagine munching on a few of these, either accompanied by vanilla ice cream or dipped into caramel sauce (I do like to gild the lily!). Thanks for this gorgeous post! x

  6. I had never seen on before either, Laura, but they were wonderful. Ice cream and aramel sauce would be a lovely addition. I am all for gilding the lily myself.

  7. Hey, any pot will do! I actually own my grandmother's deep fryer but I didn't even both to get it out for this, Nancy. They were that quick.
