Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 2 tablespoons Kool-Aid powder (any flavor)
• 1 Egg
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
• 0.25 cup Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and Kool-Aid powder until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, beat the egg, then whisk in the milk until evenly combined.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a thick, smooth batter forms. Avoid overmixing.

Step 4

In a deep saucepan or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil stays at the right temperature for frying.

Step 5

Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding.

Step 6

Fry each batch for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally with a slotted spoon, until the dough balls are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Remove the fried Kool-Aid balls with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 8

While still warm, dust generously with powdered sugar for a sweet finish.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious fried Kool-Aid!
