Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Kool-Aid powder (any flavor)
- 1 Egg
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 0.25 cup Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and Kool-Aid powder until well combined.
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg, then whisk in the milk until evenly combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a thick, smooth batter forms. Avoid overmixing.
In a deep saucepan or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil stays at the right temperature for frying.
Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Fry each batch for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally with a slotted spoon, until the dough balls are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the fried Kool-Aid balls with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
While still warm, dust generously with powdered sugar for a sweet finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious fried Kool-Aid!
