Steps

Step 1

Chill candy bar

Chill your candy bar for at least 20 minutes in the freezer before frying.
Step 2

Heat oil

Pour 4 cups of oil into a pot and heat until it reaches 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Step 3

Make batter

Make the batter to coat the candy bar by combining the egg, the remaining tablespoon of oil, and the milk in the mixing bowl.
Step 4

Whisk in remaining ingredients

Whisk in the baking powder and the flour until all the ingredients are mixed together. Refrigerate the batter for a couple of minutes to thicken. Pour a small amount of flour on a plate for dredging.
Step 5

Dip in batter

Dredge the candy bar in flour; then submerge it in the batter. Retrieve it with the tongs.
Make sure the candy bar is fully coated in batter.
Step 6

Place in oil

Carefully lower the candy bar into the oil with the tongs, making sure not to splash. Fry the candy bar for approximately 2 minutes or until it is golden brown.
Step 7

Take out with tongs

Grab the candy bar with your tongs to remove it from the pot and place on the paper towel. Let it cool and enjoy.
