Cadbury Creme Scotch Eggs

Scotch eggs

Jessie Oleson of Cakespy has made Cadbury Creme Scotch Eggs, a sweet version of the traditional sausage-wrapped Scotch egg. Not to worry, this candy version is deep-fried too but they’re dipped in a “thick cocoa-kissed batter” and wrapped in cookie crumbs instead of bread crumbs. Recipe at Serious Eats.

When eaten warm, the taste calls to mind that of a deep-fried candy bars that one can find at state fairs. Though in my opinion, these have slightly more complex flavor thanks to the cocoa in the batter and the vanilla cookie crumbs. Speaking of the crumbs, they also give the treat a pleasing crunch, which acts as a nice texture contrast to the cakey batter and soft, gooey chocolate and sugar-filled interior.
