Ingredients
1 tube refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
Vegetable oil, for frying
1 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
2 tbsp. granulated sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
pinch of salt
1 c. milk
1 large egg
Powdered sugar, for sprinkling

Preparation
Step 1Using a small cookie scoop, roll cookie dough into small balls, about 1” wide. Transfer to a large baking sheet and freeze until very firm, about 1 hour.Step 2Once the cookie dough balls have chilled, in a large pot over medium heat, heat about 3” of vegetable oil until the oil has reached about 360°. Step 3Make batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add milk and egg and whisk until smooth. Step 4Once the oil has reached the correct temperature, working in batches, add chilled dough balls to batter and toss until completely coated. Remove cookie dough ball from batter, letting excess batter drip back into the bowl, then carefully add them to the hot oil.Step 5Fry until golden all over, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and dust with powdered sugar. Drizzle with melted chocolate and serve.
