Ingredients

Scale

Batter

  • 1 cup Bisquick pancake mix
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 egg

Snickers

  • 12 mini Snickers bars or 6 full-size Snickers bars

For Frying

  • Oil for frying (enough to fill a heavy bottom pot 5-6 inches deep, typically vegetable oil)

Optional

  • Bamboo skewers

Instructions

  1. Heat the Oil: Fill a heavy-bottom pot with 5-6 inches of vegetable oil. Attach an oil or candy thermometer and heat the oil to 375°F (190°C) over medium-high heat.
  2. Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine Bisquick pancake mix, milk, vegetable oil, and egg. Whisk the ingredients together until most lumps disappear and the batter is thick enough to coat the Snickers without dripping. Adjust thickness by adding a little more mix if too runny or milk if too thick. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to thicken.
  3. Skewer the Snickers (Optional): Insert bamboo skewers into each Snickers bar if desired, for easier handling during frying.
  4. Coat the Snickers: Dip each Snickers bar into the batter, making sure it is completely covered. Shake gently to remove any excess batter.
  5. Fry the Snickers: Carefully lower the battered Snickers into the hot oil. If they bob up to the surface, use a utensil to keep them submerged for even frying. Fry until the coating is a deep golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Drain Excess Oil: Remove the fried Snickers from the oil and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the fried Snickers to cool for 5 to 10 minutes so they firm up slightly. Serve warm for the best gooey, melty experience.

Notes

  • Use a thermometer to maintain oil temperature at 375°F for best results and to prevent greasy or undercooked batter.
  • If the batter is too runny, your fried coating may slide off; adjust thickness as needed.
  • Frying in batches prevents overcrowding the pot, which can lower oil temperature.
  • These are best eaten shortly after frying to enjoy the warm melted center and crispy coating.
  • Be cautious with hot oil and use appropriate utensils to safely handle the fried candy bars.
