Fried Paleta Payaso

Discover the delightful twist on a classic Mexican candy with this Fried Paleta Payaso recipe. These delectable treats are marshmallow lollipops coated with chocolate and gummies, deep-fried to perfection for a unique dessert experience.

Ingredients

🍬 1 Paleta Payaso (big marshmallow covered with chocolate)
🥚 1 egg
🥞 2 cups of pancake mix
💧 1 cup of water (adjust as needed)
🌡️ Deep frying oil

Instructions

1- Preparation of the Candy:

• Remove the plastic stick from the Paleta Payaso and replace it with a wooden stick or skewer. This will provide a sturdy handle for frying.
• Place the Paleta Payaso in a sealable bag and freeze it for at least four hours. This will help the candy hold its shape during frying.

2- Prepare the Batter:

• In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of pancake mix with 1 egg.
• Gradually add 1 cup of water to the mixture, stirring continuously until you achieve a smooth, thick batter. The consistency should be slightly thicker than regular pancake batter to ensure it adheres to the candy.

3- Fry the Candy:

• Heat deep frying oil in a pot or fryer to medium heat.
• Remove the frozen Paleta Payaso from the freezer and dunk it into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated.
• Carefully place the battered candy into the hot oil and fry for about 4 minutes, turning occasionally until the batter is golden brown.
• Be cautious when handling the fried candy, as the inside will be melted and very hot.

4- Serve:

• Allow the fried Paleta Payaso to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy this sweet, gooey treat with caution, as it is deliciously hot inside!

Prep Time: 5 minutes (excluding freezing time)
Cook Time: 4 minutes
Total Time: 9 minutes
Servings: Makes 1 serving.
Equipment: Mixing bowl, skewer, sealable bag, deep fryer or pot, tongs.

Cooking Tips:

• Ensure the oil is not too hot, as high temperatures can cause the batter to burn before the inside is fully heated.
• Fry one Paleta Payaso at a time to maintain oil temperature and quality.
