Q&A for How to Make Fried Oreos

This recipe makes 18 fried Oreo cookies.

No, you don't have to freeze the Oreos. Doing so helps keep them from falling apart, however. It also helps the cream filling from melting and leaking out into the frying oil.

You don't necessarily need the eggs but they help the coating stick much better.

Probably not. The leftover fried Oreos will likely have temperature or texture issues.

Yes, you may. It potentially could be easier to buy it, because you don't have to spend a lot of time, but it is up to you if you want to make it or buy it.

Plain flour would be pretty bland. Your Oreos wouldn't taste nearly as good.

Thicker batter sticks to the Oreos better. Just add some more mix (pancake, waffle, etc.,) to thicken the batter.

Use funnel cake or waffle mix.

You can use either vegetable or canola oil.

If the ingredients are packaged with the mix, then no. If it's not combined with the mix yet, then yes.

No, you do not. If the package says to just add water, you are good to go.

You can make it with either. Just make sure you have the right amount of milk.

It's not necessary, store-bought pancake mix is usually sifted during the factory process.

No, the cream does not have to be removed. You dip the entire cookie into the batter and fry it.

The batter will be sweeter than using normal milk, but it can still work fine to make the fried Oreos.

You could. Your batter might not have the desired consistency, though.

Yes. You can also use waffle mix, funnel cake mix, or you can make your own mix.

Adding milk makes the eating experience creamier and richer. By all means, use water if you prefer.

No, I would not use muffin mix. It produces a dryer, thicker batter that's not desirable for fried Oreos.

I don't recommend this. Olive oil has a much lower smoking point, which means you're more likely to burn the Oreos, and the flavor will probably be affected as well.

You can use store-bought pancake mix. If you do, just follow the instructions on the box.

Yes. Pretty much any pancake or waffle mix will work, including Bisquick.

You don't need the milk, but pancake batter doesn't usually come with milk unless it is homemade (which is the best way to make these).

No, you cannot.

Yes, you can.

Yes, you can make fried oreos without milk. Use normal pancake mix with water, but for a better result, use the complete pancake mix, to which you only have to add water. Or, use plant milks.

3 - 5 days if they're covered and chilled in the fridge. Keep in mind that most fried foods lose a lot of their crunch and flavor the longer they're stored, so it's recommended to eat them right away after they're cooked.

You can, just make sure you cover them and leave them in the fridge. Keep in mind that you'll need to reheat them the next day and that they may lose some of their flavor.

You can refry the Oreos for a few seconds, microwave them or heat them up for a few minutes inside an oven.

When you fry, you have to keep the burner on. But when it come to the second last till the last ones, you can off it because the oil will remain hot enough to finish the batch.
