Ingredients
1 bottle vegetable oil (16 oz or larger)
1 c. pancake mix (like Bisquick)
1 c. white or Funfetti cake mix
1 c. milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 package Oreos
1 c. powdered sugar
1/4 c. buttermilk (or regular milk)
1/3 c. rainbow sprinkles
Preparation
Step 1Make the Birthday Cake Fried Oreos: Fill a deep-walled skillet about 1 1/2 inches high with vegetable oil. Place over medium-high heat. As it heats, pour pancake mix, cake mix, milk, vanilla extract and eggs into a large mixing bowl. Whisk to combine, breaking up any large lumps. Step 2If you stick the handle of a wooden spoon into the oil, the oil should bubble up and sizzle around it. That’s how you know it’s ready to fry (that, or a thermometer reads 350 degrees F).Step 3Use tongs to dip the Oreos in the birthday cake mixture, then place each one into the hot oil.Step 4After about 30-45 seconds, flip the Oreos to let the other sides to turn lightly golden.Step 5Place the fried Oreos on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess grease.Step 6Make the Sugar-Sprinkle Glaze: Pour the powdered sugar and buttermilk into a soup bowl. Whisk to combine, adding more buttermilk—if necessary—to make it easily pourable. (It should be about the thickness of glue.) Step 7Drizzle glaze over fried Oreos, topping them with sprinkles. Serve.
