Chunks of mint take this deep-fried cookie dough to the next level!

by: Buns In My Oven

Updated Sep 6, 2017

Ingredients

1 pouch (6.25 oz) Betty Crocker™ Cookie Mix Sugar
Eggs and butter, as called for on the bag of mix
5 drops green food coloring
1 cup Andes crème de menthe baking chips
1 cup Original Bisquick™ mix
1/2 cup milk
Oil, for frying

Steps

1

Add the cookie mix, butter, and egg to a large bowl and beat together until your cookie dough is well combined. Stir in the green food coloring until the mixture is evenly colored.
2

Stir in the mint chips.
3

Scoop the dough out onto a baking sheet with a medium cookie scoop. Roll each ball of dough between your hands to make round and smooth. Freeze for 20 minutes to firm up.
4

While the dough is freezing, whisk together the Bisquick™ and milk in a small bowl with a fork.
5

Heat 3 inches of oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until it reaches 375°F. Coat the balls of cookie dough in the batter, one at a time, and carefully drop into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan.
6

Fry for 2-3 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown.
7

Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
