• Ready In: 30mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• oil, for frying
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 (12 ounce) bottle beer
• 4 candy bars (recommended -- Mars Bars)
• vanilla ice cream, for serving

directions

1. Heat the oil in a deep fat fryer to 375 degrees F (or in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour enough oil to fill the pan about a third of the way. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 375 degrees F.). If you don't have a thermometer, a cube of bread will brown in about 3 minutes.
2. Make the batter by adding the flour and salt to a mixing bowl and whisking in the beer.
3. When ready, dip the candy bars into the batter. Drop the candy bars into the hot oil, and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, or until their exteriors turn golden brown.
4. Serve the fried candy bars with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
