Ingredients

  • All-purpose flour

  • Granulated sugar
  • 2 cups milk
  • Eggs
  • 1 litre oil, for deep frying
  • Vanilla extract
  • Melted chocolate, for glaze
  • Icing sugar, for dusting

Method

  1. Using a mixer bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on high speed until well combined. Add in the eggs and vanilla and beat until combined.
  2. On low speed gradually add the flour and salt. Stir in the chocolate (broken into pieces)
  3. Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place on a baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, at least one hour
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Add the milk and vegetable oil, and whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

Allow excess batter drip back into the bowl, and then gently drop it into the oil. Fry until they are puffed and a dark golden brown on all sides.
  6. Remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain. Repeat with the rest of the cookie dough balls and batter
  7. Drizzle puff puff with melted chocolate and dust some icing sugar before serving.
