Cookies & Cream Cheesecake Deep-Fried Oreos

In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and whipped cream cheese (or heavy cream) until smooth and creamy. If it’s too thick, add a little more cream to reach a thick but spreadable consistency.

Stuff the Oreos:
Using a spoon or small piping bag, carefully stuff each Oreo cookie with the cheesecake filling. Make sure the filling is evenly spread inside the cookie without breaking it apart. Set aside.

Make the Batter:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, milk, egg, and vanilla extract until you have a smooth batter. It should be thick enough to coat the Oreos.

Heat the Oil:
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Test the oil by dropping in a small bit of batter – if it sizzles and rises to the surface, it’s ready for frying.

Dip and Fry:
Carefully dip each stuffed Oreo into the batter, making sure it’s fully coated. Gently place it into the hot oil and fry for about 2-3 minutes, turning as needed, until the batter is golden and crispy.

Drain and Serve:
Remove the deep-fried Oreos from the oil and let them drain on a plate lined with paper towels. While they’re still hot, dust with powdered sugar.
