So do I have your attention? Thats right! I’m talking about deep-fried candy bars! Most chip shops in Ireland offer this treat, usually a Snickers, often also a Mars bar, but many will deep-fry any candy bar you bring into them. I’ve seen them a few places in the US as well, from pubs to county fairs. Again, Eamonn’s in Old Town Alexandria has them on the menu. Since I’ve had my deep-fryer working overtime lately, I decided to give it a whirl. There was some controversy online as to whether your candy bar should merely be refrigerated or frozen. I went with refrigerated, but can easily say in hindsight, go ahead and freeze that sucker! Also, very importantly, make sure every square inch of your candy bar is ensconsced in batter. If there is one little hole, one little opening, you will end up with a deep-fryer full of chocolately oil. Boooo! We tried a Reese cup….didn’t really work. We tried a 1,0000 Grand bar…..no dice. Luckily we did get our Snickers. What can I say. YUM! Crunchy coating with an ooooey, goooey, yummmy center! If your adventurous, give it a whirl!
