Prep: 20 min
Cook: 5 min

Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 4-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup 2% milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Oil for deep-fat frying
  • 24 fun-size Snickers and/or Milky Way candy bars, frozen
  • Wooden skewers
  • Confectioners' sugar, optional

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together first 6 ingredients. In another bowl, whisk together egg, water, milk and vanilla; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
  2. In a deep cast-iron or electric skillet, heat oil to 375°. Dip candy bars, a few at a time, into batter; fry until golden brown, about 30 seconds per side. Drain on paper towels.
  3. Insert skewers into bars. If desired, dust with confectioners' sugar.
