Cookies And Cream Funnel Cake Sandwiches Recipe By Tasty Food

FUNNEL CAKE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Pour the oil into a Dutch oven fitted with a deep-fry thermometer. Place over medium-high heat and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and place a cooling rack on top.
• Make the batter: Pour the cake mix into a large mixing bowl. Whisk in the flour and baking powder. Add the milk and eggs. Use a hand mixer to blend the wet ingredients into the dry, until the batter is smooth and free of any lumps. Scrape the batter into a pastry bag and snip a small hole in the tip.
• Quickly squeeze the batter in a circular motion into the hot oil, creating a lacey round about 3 inches wide. Fry until golden brown, about 30 seconds per side. Gently remove from the oil and flip onto the cooling rack (they are fragile). Repeat to make 16 funnel cakes. They will become crispy as they cool.
• Allow the ice cream to soften on the counter for about 5 minutes. Scoop the ice cream onto 8 funnel cakes. Top each scoop with another funnel cake and gently press down. Dust the ice cream sandwiches with confectioners' sugar and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Make the funnel cakes: In a large Dutch oven or deep pot fitted with a deep fry thermometer, heat the neutral oil over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 375°F (190°C) (the oil should be no more than 1½ inches deep). Set a wire rack on top of a baking sheet. Preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C).
• In a large bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla until well combined.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and whisk until well combined. Divide the batter evenly between 2 medium bowls.
• Sift 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder into one bowl and whisk until combined. Add the red food coloring to the remaining bowl, then sift in the remaining ½ tablespoon of cocoa powder and whisk until combined. Using a funnel, transfer each batter to a squeeze bottle.
• Make the chocolate sauce: Add the chocolate to a medium heat-proof bowl.
• Microwave the cream on high power for 2 minutes, until just starting to bubble.
• Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let sit for 2 minutes. Add the black food coloring and sift in the dark cocoa powder, then stir until melted and smooth. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing directly against the surface to prevent a skin from forming, and let sit at room temperature until ready to use. Microwave in 10-seconds intervals if needed to loosen before using.
• Fry the funnel cakes: Working with one batter at a time, squeeze the batter into the hot oil in a squiggly circle motion to make a 4-inch round funnel cake. Squeeze in 1-2 more funnel cakes; do not overcrowd the pot. Fry for 1-2 minutes on each side, until slightly darker in color, then use a spider to transfer from the oil to the wire rack. Transfer to the oven to keep warm while you fry the remaining funnel cakes.
• When ready to serve, spread the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies on a serving platter. Place the gummy worms around the edges of the platter, nestling into the crushed cookies. Set the funnel cakes on top of the cookie crumbs. Dust the red funnel cakes with ¼ cup powdered sugar, then drizzle with the chocolate sauce using a spoon or squeeze bottle.
• In a medium microwave-safe bowl, microwave the marshmallows for 12-15 seconds, until nearly doubled in size. Using gloved hands, pick up the melted marshmallows and stretch them over each black funnel cake to create a "web".
• Enjoy!
