Cookie fries are the ultimate mashup of two of the best junk foods, and we've 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 we've taken them a step further by deep-frying them, because it makes them that much better.

From Patrick Phelps, POPSUGAR Food Deep-Fried Cookie Fries Ingredients1 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
Special equipment:

Crinkle cutter
Directions
To make the cookies: Preheat oven to 350ºF 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 it's 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 stockpot to 350ºF. Fry cookies until the outside is just turning golden brown. Remove from the oil and let drain on a paper
