Preparation Process:
1. Prep the Oreos: Carefully separate the Oreo cookies, reserving the cream filling for later.
2. Create the Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt until smooth.
3. Coat the Oreos: Dip each Oreo cookie into the batter, ensuring it’s fully coated.
4. Fry to Perfection: Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (177°C). Carefully add the battered Oreos to the hot oil, frying in small batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 30-40 seconds per side, or until golden brown.
5. Drain and Cool: Remove the fried Oreos from the oil using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Let them cool slightly.
6. Assemble the Delight: Once the Oreos have cooled, pipe or spoon the reserved cream filling back onto the fried cookies.
7. Dust with Sugar: Generously dust the Oreo Churro Delights with powdered sugar.
Total Time: Approximately 30 minutes
