Standalone Cooking Segment: GANSITO FRITOS!!! (Patreon)

I love this thumbnail.

What you'll need:

• Gansitos

• Skewer sticks

• a box of the pancake batter of your choice

• (optional) a bag of chocolate chips

• corn oil

• Strawberry jam

• whipped cream

• chocolate sprinkles

Prep:

• Freeze Gansitos overnight.

• Mix pancake mix into a thick batter, thicker than you'd be able to make pancakes with. Once it's thoroughly mixed, stir in chocolate chips and then transfer batter mix into a tall pitcher. Unwrap all the Gansitos you plan on frying and skewer them

• in a tall pot, heat corn oil to 350 degrees F or approx 175C. Once heated, dip skewered Gansitos into batter pitcher and allow for excess batter mix to drip back into pitcher before gently lowering it into the oil.

• Gently keep the Gansito under the surface of the oil for no more than one minute, removing to a wire rack to cool and dry before starting the next one.

• Once all Gansitos are battered, fried, and cooling, turn heat off oil and remove it to a safe place to cool. Apply a liberal amount of strawberry jam to the top of the Gansitos, then whipped cream, and finally top with sprinkles.

• Enjoy, and don't forget to save the extra batter for chocolate chip pancakes. It's great once you add a little more water to thin it back out.
