Chocolate-Dusted Fries

David Venable

Have you ever dipped a French fry into your milk shake? These two diner classic are the inspiration for these absolutely addictive Chocolate-Dusted Fries.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb shoestring-style French fries
  • 1 Tbsp instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 1 Tbsp dark chocolate, finely grated
  • 1/8 tsp instant coffee, crushed between fingers
  • pinch of cayenne pepper

Directions

Fill a deep fryer or a deep-sided pot halfway full with oil and heat to 375°F.
While the oil is heating, combine the chocolate pudding mix, dark chocolate, instant coffee, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl.
Place the French fries into the hot oil and cook until golden brown. Place the fries in a large bowl and toss with about 1/3 of the chocolate mixture. Repeat 2 more times, or until fries are fully coated.

Cook's Notes

For an extra-special presentation, roll a thick piece of paper into a cone shape. Place on piece of tap on the side, and one on the bottom corner, then fill with the French fries and serve!
