Deep-fried cupcakes on a stick by Cakespy

Could these deep-fried cupcakes on a stick be any cuter? They're by Jessie Oleson of one of our favorite sites, Cakespy, and you can get the recipe at Serious Eats.

First things first. The title of this recipe has probably brought up a serious question, and I'd like to answer it straightaway.

The answer is yes, I
am trying to kill you, Paula Deen style. These deep-fried cupcakes on sticks may in fact not stick to your New Year's resolution plan, but they're delicious.

The thick batter seals moisture into the cake, and the oil infuses it with a light savoriness that makes them absolutely tantalizing. The taste is like the intersection of childhood nostalgia and greasy fair food.

death by deep fried cupcake? I can think of worse ways to go.
I've tried deep-fried cupcakes before. Tasty except for the frosting. It's hard to get a good frosting that won't melt when added.
