Cookie fries are the ultimate mashup of two of the best junk foods, and weve figured out a way to make them at home. Created by The Cookie Joint and popularized at the Texas State Fair, these crinkle-cut cookies are the next food trend anyone with a sweet tooth needs to try. The original cookie fries are baked, but weve taken them a step further by deep frying them because it makes them that much better.
Deep Fried Cookie Fries
Inspired by The Cookie Joint
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons semolina flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 eggs
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons sprinkles
Oil for frying
For the raspberry ketchup:
6 ounces raspberries
1 tablespoon water
1/4 cup raspberry jam
Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl mix together flour, semolina flour, and salt until incorporated. Use a fork to cut the butter into the mixture, like you would a shortbread cookie until its mixed in.
In a second bowl whisk together eggs and powdered sugar until it gets light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and continue mixing until incorporated. Slowly mix in the flour mixture until a sticky dough forms. Add sprinkles and continue mixing.
Roll the dough out and use a crinkle cutter to cut french fries out of the dough. Place cookies on the baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for 3 minutes to cool slightly.
Meanwhile heat oil in a heavy bottomed stock pot to 350F. Fry cookies until the outside is just turning golden brown. Remove from the oil and let drain on a paper towel lined plate.
To make the ketchup: add raspberries and water into a pot over medium heat. Stir the raspberries until the boil and soften. Add the jam and continue mixing until warmed through and incorporated. Strain the mixture through a sieve to remove the seeds.

Brian Cooksey How do you keep the fries small and pretty and keep them from expanding? We cut them 1/4 thick and they expanded to an inch wide. reply
