Steps:
- Mix flour, salt, and water until smooth, cover, and let stand at room temperature 20 to 30 minutes. Stir baking powder into batter. Place shortening or oil in a deep fat fryer, insert thermometer, and begin heating over high heat. Dip candy bars into batter, allowing excess to drain off. Fry in 375 degree fat until golden and crisp. Drain on paper toweling.
FRIED ICE CREAM
Steps:
- With an ice cream scoop, form 4 large balls of ice cream. Place on a waxed paper lined sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Freeze for at least 2 hours.
- In a bowl, combine the cornflake crumbs with either the coconut, walnuts or cookie crumbs (or any combination). Spread the mixture in a shallow dish.
- Dip the ice cream balls in the crumb mixture and freeze for 30 minutes.
- In a bowl, beat the eggs and sugar. Dip the coated ice cream balls into the eggs, then roll in the crumb mixture, coating completely. Freeze for 1 hour. (If necessary, or for a thicker crust, roll again in eggs and crumbs until the balls are completely coated.)
- Heat the oil in a large pot or fryer to 400 degrees F. One at a time, lower the balls into the oil and fry until golden brown, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove from the oil and place in a dessert bowl. Drizzle with chocolate sauce and whipped cream, as desired. Repeat with the remaining ice cream.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a deep fat fryer to 375 degrees F (or in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour enough oil to fill the pan about a third of the way. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 375 degrees F.). If you don't have a thermometer, a cube of bread will brown in about 3 minutes.
- Make the batter by adding the flour and salt to a mixing bowl and whisking in the beer.
- When ready, dip the candy bars into the batter. Drop the candy bars into the hot oil, and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, or until their exteriors turn golden brown.
- Serve the fried candy bars with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Tips:
- Use a deep fryer or large saucepan for frying the Mars bars, ensuring it has enough oil to fully submerge them.
- Keep the oil temperature at 350°F (175°C) to prevent burning the Mars bars. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature accurately.
- Before dipping the Mars bars in the batter, make sure the batter is cold enough to coat them properly. This will help prevent the batter from sliding off.
- Do not overcrowd the fryer or saucepan when frying the Mars bars. Fry them in batches to ensure even cooking and prevent them from sticking together.
- Use a slotted spoon to carefully remove the fried Mars bars from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
- Serve the fried Mars bars immediately with your desired toppings, such as ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, or sprinkles, while they are still warm and crispy.
