Essential Tools for Preparation
Medium Mixing Bowl: For preparing the cheesecake filling.
Whisk: To mix the coating ingredients.
Large Pot or Deep Fryer: To fry the Oreo sandwiches.
Slotted Spoon: For removing the Oreos from the oil.
Paper Towels: For draining excess oil.
Ice Cream Scoop or Spoon: To dollop the cheesecake filling onto the Oreos.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling
Start by beating the softened cream cheese in a medium bowl until it’s smooth and creamy. Add in the granulated sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Finally, gently fold in the crushed Oreos. This will give the filling a delightful cookies-and-cream flavor that’s simply to die for.

2. Assemble the Oreos
Take a spoon or a small ice cream scoop and place a small dollop of the cheesecake filling on top of each Oreo cookie. Carefully press another Oreo on top to create a sandwich. Repeat this process with the remaining Oreos, making sure each one is filled with that delicious cheesecake mixture.

3. Prepare the Coating
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until they’re fully combined. Now, dip each Oreo sandwich into the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture, and back into the flour mixture to coat them thoroughly. This double-coating technique ensures a crispy and golden exterior when fried.

4. Fry the Oreos
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Make sure there’s enough oil to fully submerge the Oreos. Carefully place the coated Oreos into the hot oil, frying a few at a time without overcrowding the pot. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and crispy. Once done, use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried Oreos to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

5. Garnish and Serve

While the deep-fried Oreos are still warm, dust them with powdered sugar and sprinkle with additional crushed Oreos if desired. Serve immediately for the best experience – they’re irresistible when fresh out of the fryer!

Tips for Making the Perfect Deep-Fried Oreos
Don’t Overcrowd the Pot: Fry just a few Oreos at a time to ensure they cook evenly and the oil temperature stays consistent.
Serve Immediately: These treats are best enjoyed warm, straight from the fryer. The coating stays crispy, and the filling is perfectly melty.
Try Different Oreos: Experiment with different Oreo flavors for a fun twist. Mint, peanut butter, or even the seasonal varieties would all work beautifully.
What to Serve with Deep-Fried Oreos
These indulgent treats are quite rich, so something light and refreshing makes the perfect pairing. Consider serving them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a drizzle of chocolate sauce, or a cold glass of milk. For an extra-special dessert, you could even serve them alongside fresh berries or a dollop of whipped cream.

Storage Instructions
While these deep-fried Oreos are best enjoyed fresh, you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, place them in an oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes, or until warmed through and crispy again. However, keep in mind that they won’t be as crispy as when they’re freshly made.
