Deep Fried Twinkie and Oreos

Feb 21, 2010

 
No funnel cake today, it was all about the deep fried Twinkie and Oreos cookies. There's a little wagon stand on the boardwalk right across from the water ride that makes you look twice and say to yourself "Does that really say deep fried twinkies?" Just the thought of deep frying a Twinkie makes me feel a little giddy inside knowing that it's probably not good for me but I know it'll taste good. 

  
The making of a deep fried Twinkie on a stick.
  
 A sprinkle of powdered sugar on top and chocolate syrup on the side and this is ready to go.

  


  
The Twinkie good like a deep fried twinkie should be. It had a golden outer layer with the right crispy crust, soft  and steaming hot inside. I was looking for the cream in the middle but it was no where to be found. It must have melted away inside.

 
Oh man! This Oreo was yummy, much better than the deep fried Twinkie. It was crispy, hot, chocolaty and awesome. I dipped it in the chocolate syrup and it was good but too sweet for me. It was better without it. If I had to chose one or the other, I'd go for the deep fried Oreos without a doubt.

Justin - I love twinkies as a kid as well, I couldn't get enough of them. If you ever see them, be sure to try them. Get some oreos too, I was surprised I liked them more.

Oh god. I don't think I could stomach the twinkie (I've only ever eaten one before, when a US penpal sent me some, and it was like having a mouthful of sugar and preservatives) but that deep fried Oreo looks sinfully brilliant. Yes, I realise the glaring hypocrisy in what I've just said ;)

@Conor - lol! the oreo had more of of a chocolate flavor but still contained a lot of sugar which was oh so yummy

The first deep fried Twinkie I had was at that stand on The Boardwalk many summers ago. They are the best when they are fresh hot out of the fryer. I can't go to The Boardwalk now without getting one!
