Description

Deep-fried bites of cheesecake-stuffed cherries.

Ingredients

  • Oil, As Needed For Deep Fat Frying
  • FOR THE FILLED CHERRIES:
  • 4 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Room Temperature
  • 3 Tablespoons Powdered Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 24 whole Cherries, Pitted
  • FOR THE COATING:
  • 1 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 cup Buttermilk

Preparation

Heat oil to 375ºF.

For the filling:
Mix cream cheese, sugar and vanilla together. Place into a piping bag fitted with a small tip. Fill each cherry with your cream cheese mixture.

For the coating:
In a shallow pan/bowl mix crumbs and salt together.

Add buttermilk to a separate bowl.

Roll cherries into graham crumbs, then into the buttermilk, then repeat process. I did it 3 times to give each cherry a nice coating that stuck well.

Place no more than 3 cherries at a time into your hot oil for 20-30 seconds. Remove from oil with a slotted spoon or basket. Place onto a paper towel to drain the grease.

Enjoy your bites hot!
