### **Instructions**
#### **1. Prepare the Sweet Potato Filling**
– Peel and dice the sweet potato into small cubes.
– Boil or steam the sweet potato cubes until tender (about 10-15 minutes).
– Once cooked, drain and mash the sweet potato until smooth.
– Stir in the cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar (if using), and a pinch of salt. Set aside to cool.
#### **2. Stuff the White Oreos**
– Carefully twist open the White Oreos, scraping off the filling to expose the two cookie halves.
– Using a spoon, place a small dollop of the sweet potato mixture onto the center of one of the cookie halves.
– Gently press the other cookie half back onto the sweet potato mixture, sealing the sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
#### **3. Prepare the Batter for Frying**
– In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, milk, egg, and vanilla extract to form a smooth batter.
– The batter should be thick enough to coat the cookies but still runny enough to dip them easily. If it’s too thick, add a bit more milk until you reach the right consistency.
#### **4. Fry the Stuffed Oreos**
– Heat about 2-3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat. You’ll want the oil to be hot, around 350°F (175°C), to ensure a crispy exterior.
– Dip each stuffed Oreo into the batter, ensuring it’s fully coated, and gently place it into the hot oil.
– Fry for 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy on all sides. Use a slotted spoon to remove the Oreos and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
#### **5. Serve and Enjoy**
– Once fried, let the Sweet Potato Stuffed Fried White Oreos cool slightly before serving. You can dust them with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness, or enjoy them as-is for a crispy, flavorful treat.

### **Tips for Success**
1. **Adjust the Sweetness**: If you prefer your sweet potato filling to be sweeter, feel free to add more brown sugar or even a drizzle of maple syrup to the mashed sweet potatoes.
2. **Use a Deep Fry Thermometer**: Ensuring the oil reaches the right temperature is key to getting the perfect crispy texture. Too low, and the batter will absorb too much oil; too high, and it will burn.
3. **Play with Flavors**: You can experiment by adding different spices to the sweet potato filling, such as ginger, allspice, or a dash of vanilla extract.
4. **Serve with Dipping Sauce**: For an extra indulgent treat, serve these fried Oreos with a dipping sauce like chocolate, caramel, or even a dollop of whipped cream.
