Fry after filling? How do you avoid mess in the pot from the filling? And they picture shows the papers still on, do you fry with the paper? Deep fry?

Ha..I was just going to ask the same question. How do you fry a cupcake?
I guess I'm wondering "why"...would you want to fry one anyway since this recipe was for a healthier "baked" hanukkah dessert.
