Easy - freeze in ice cube tray and then batter the frozen blobs and straight in to the fryer.
It's how deep fried condensed milk is done.

Deep fried condensed milk ? Now that really is disgusting !

Nah - condensed milk is nothing. Read my thread here about deep frying 1kg of cheese. Unfortunately the original thread is gone now.

No thank you uli, I think that would be a thread too far and in any case I have far too much respect for my heart and arteries.

#29 indy95 - I still think it's hard to beat classic deep-fried Mars Bars for sheer repulsiveness.

I'm sure you're right, davidt4, but I will have to take your word for it as I have never been able to bring myself to try them.

Same here, but I've seen them at a London fish & chip shop.One sighting was enough.

davidt4 - if the dough would be a nice crisp one and the oil really hot (and not the fish and chip shop crappy fat) the deep-fried mars bars could be nice as a dessert - especially when eaten together with something outrageous like whipped cream with horseradish or ginger and chilli icecream or something else exciting :) And I am not talking about 1 mars bar per person either LOL

Nooooooo.........Please don't make me eat it...

Hehe - why knot?

Tell you what - I'll eat the batter, you eat the Mars Bar.

No, I still like the thought of Deep Fried Ambrosia, after all it's not so far removed from Baked Alaska in some ways. Now there's an idea..................Deep Fried Baked Alaska ? Might need to egg and crumb it first.

Deep fried Baked Alaska with a lolly cake as the base?

the truffles from toffee pops(white ones) and cream cheese are brilliant. I make them every christmas now

Tut tut, there is no need to go overboard, david. That sounds like a great way to ruin a perfectly good idea. Lolly cake indeed. Blerk !!!

I made nauru's bounty bars yesterday, and they're just fabulous. And they freeze well too - can even eat them straight from the freezer (damnit!)Life's too short not to be able to have the occasional sweet treat. :)

Just made these again but substituted 1/4 cup chopped cherries for 1/4 cup coconut . Rinse & dry the cherries before chopping then add to the coconut and follow original recipe. I made this into small squares before dipping in the chocolate, or you can roll into balls.Another Xmas treat.
