Ingredients:

  • 225g (8 oz) Full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 50g (1/4 cup) Granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp Cotton candy extract
  • 15g (2 tbsp) Cornstarch
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) Heavy cream
  • 450g (16 oz) Refrigerator flaky layers biscuit dough
  • 1L (1 quart) Neutral vegetable oil for frying
  • 50g (1/4 cup) Blue and pink sanding sugar
  • 10g (1/2 cup) Fresh cotton candy
  • 50g (2 oz) White chocolate, melted

Instructions:

  1. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and cotton candy extract until smooth and aerated.
  2. Sift in the cornstarch and fold in the heavy cream until a thick, uniform batter forms.
  3. Using a small cookie scoop, drop 12 equal mounds of the cheesecake mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 2 hours until rock-solid.
  4. Flatten each biscuit from the refrigerator dough into a thin circle. Place one frozen cheesecake mound in the center and wrap the dough around it, pinching the seams tightly to seal.
  5. Heat the neutral oil in a heavy-bottomed pot to exactly 350°F (175°C).
  6. Carefully fry the bombs in batches for 2-3 minutes until the exterior reaches a mahogany-gold color and a shattering crispness.
  7. Transfer to a wire cooling rack. Once they reach room temperature, drizzle with melted white chocolate and coat with the sanding sugar and fresh cotton candy.
