How to Make Deep Fried Brownies
Step 1. Make the brownies according to the package instructions in a 9X13 prepared baking pan. Then allow to cool completely once out of the oven.
Step 2. Then remove the hard edges from the brownies. Cut into 24 brownie squares.
Step 3. Roll the brownie pieces into balls. Then refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes.
Step 4. While the oil is heating in the deep fryer, make the batter. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the batter ingredients.
Step 5. Dip the brownie balls into the batter until completely covered.
Step 6. Fry the brownie bites for 2-3 minutes until golden brown in hot oil. Then place on a lined plate. Garnish with powdered sugar and enjoy.
How to Serve Fried Brownies
Serve the brownies with powdered sugar. Other yummy ideas include No Churn Vanilla Ice Cream, caramel sauce, melted chocolate for dipping and whipped cream.
Storage
Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container. They will last up to 3 days in the fridge. Place parchment paper in between them when storing.
Expert Tips
- Use a cookie scoop. When forming the brownie balls, it is easier if you have a cookie scoop. You can make the balls quickly and they will all be the same size.
- Chill the brownie bites. Allow the dough to chill at least 30 minutes before frying.
- Soap up excess oil. Drain excess grease by placing the fried brownies on a paper towel lined plate.
- Make sure you use enough oil. You need 3 inches of oil in the deep frying pan to fry the brownies.
