The recipe comes from one of [our favorite fryers of things](http://fwx.foodandwine.com/food/introducing-deep-fried-pumpkin-spice-latte), Amy over at the blog [Oh Bite It](http://www.ohbiteit.com/2014/10/fried-candy-corn.html) and the concoction is surprisingly simple. You can whip up these little sugar bombs with nothing more than candy corn, a roll of Pillsbury Seamless Crescent Dough and a little touch of powdered sugar “for dusting.” Plus, you know, a giant pan full of artery clogging frying oil. If any candy could use some help, it’s candy corn and frying it is definitely the way to go. As Amy points out on the site, each one contains a “warm, sweet and slightly chewy colorful Nougat that has transformed into just a shadow of that seasonal, sad, tooth-buster of a treat it used to be!” Plus, they certainly beat the Necco Wafer crusted pumpkin seeds I was going to serve at my party. _More from Food & Wine:_ * [20 Halloween Desserts](http://www.foodandwine.com/slideshows/halloween-desserts?xid=PS%5Ftime) * [Candy Remix Recipes](http://www.foodandwine.com/slideshows/candy-remix-recipes/1?xid=PS%5Ftime) * [Festive Halloween Recipes](http://www.foodandwine.com/slideshows/halloween?xid=PS%5Ftime) * [10 Orange and Black Halloween Dishes](http://www.foodandwine.com/slideshows/10-orange-hued-halloween-dishes/1?xid=PS%5Ftime) * [Spooky Halloween Cocktails](http://www.foodandwine.com/slideshows/halloween-cocktails/1?xid=PS%5Ftime) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3536937/deep-fried-candy-corn-recipe/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3536937/deep-fried-candy-corn-recipe/"},"headline":"The Deep-Fried Candy Corn Recipe Your Body Was Hoping You'd Never Find","datePublished":"2014-10-24T19:53:46.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:14:02.190Z","description":"This article originally appeared on Food & Wine.
