Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
Rotinni noodles
(you must use a rice based noodle)
3 cups oil, peanut oil preferred
Cooking Directions:
Combine cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl and mix well. Heat oil to about 500 degrees, be careful not to let the oil smoke. When the oil is hot enough, drop a handful of uncooked noodles, dropping only a few at a time. Deep-fry for 30 seconds. You will know when they are done because they will sink to the bottom and then resurface. Place cooked noodles on some paper towels so they can drain. Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar mix over them.

I hope you know that 500 degree oil will do more than smoke!!!
No kidding. 500 degrees is hot. We get it. Duh.
500 degree oil will only have problems if you use the wrong kind of oil. The massive fryers in parfried food processing plants keep their oil at 425 to 475 all day long. Just make sure to use peanut, soybean, rapeseed, or some other oil that has been filtered and refined and you should be fine. Only oils like these can take the heat. Olive oil, regular vegetable oil, or any cold pressed, unfiltered oil will burn long before it reaches that temperature.
This recipe does not work!! I can't make the noodles puff up the like the "Taco Bell Twists".
Drahkk, where can I find this rapeseed you speak of?
This recipe i will try
the recipie will work, you just have to use the right kind of oil and noodles. My fiance' works at Taco Bell and he said that the twists come to the store in hard Rotini noodle form and they make them there.
The oil at Taco Bell temps at 350 degrees not 500, other than that the recipe is right on the money, and the only one I have seen online that is accurate.
rapeseed oil is actually canola oil. It isn't a very becoming name so they renamed it canola. Comes from the rapeseed plant which is actually extremely toxic and deadly. Only after being chemically altered can it be used! yummy huh? not good for you!...I would stick to your natural oils that can take the heat!
I work at taco bell also and this is how we make them there. I have not yet found the right noodles and I think they are better from the store myself. Enjoy though!
ok I have tried this and we cant get them to work!! I put the rice noodles in the hot oil and they just burn!! HELP what am i doing wrong???????????
god dam it! this recipe doesn't work! fuck!
You're not raping the seeds hard enough anonymous.
or you could just buy some Clancy's Cinamon Twists. even better than Taco Hell's :)

Rotinni noodles is NOT what is used. Sure they LOOK like it (C4 explosive LOOKS like modeling clay, but they are VERY different). The "noodles" used by Taco Hell are actually corn starch based, not flour based.
Rapeseed = canola
come on people...if you actually believe that Taco Bell is freely gonna give you the recipe (SECRET RECIPE) you are dumber then dumb.no one in their right mind is not gonna give away secrets especially when it's working for them.i know cause i have a secret spudnut recipe and do you actually think i'm gonna give the SECRET RECIPE away? NO!!!! so again Taco Bell is posting a bogus recipe to throw you off.
I work at taco bell and this is right on. I just made them.
Are you supposed to cook the noodles in water and soften them before cooking them in the oil???
Can i get your spudnut recipe?!?!
Can i get your spudnut recipe?!?!

Hi! I am a taco bell shift lead. You do NOT want the oil to be THAT hot before you throw the noodles in! Our fryer oil at Taco Bell is NEVER hotter than 355 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, it is very important that you use a rice flour rottini noodle, using the semolina/wheat durum noodles or oil at 500 degrees could really hurt you! I would suggest using a deep fryer with a lid also for saftey reasons (sometimes the noodles pop). Other than that, this recipe is quite accurate.
www.tacobell.com/food/menuitem/Cinnamon-Twists
The taco bell site clearly says they are corn twists.
We're gonna try it tonight :)
Haha, I just started working at Taco Bell and I was so surprised when I realized these are actually fried noodles! How weird!
Got a rice flour rotinni noodle.. oil is at the temp.. it fries thema nd they start to crackle but they never "grow" or expand like that of the cinnamon twists.. wondering if I am doing something wrong somewhere...
Most deep fryers only go up to 375
None of you know wtf ur talking about
Ok you are the dumb one here. First of all it's not a "secret recipe" that taco bell invented or something, it's just an item they serve even if they have rights to it, they're not the only people in the world who can make it. Also they sell the official taco bell taco meat seasoning at the grocery store for fuck sake. Lastly have you no concept of what a discruntled employee is?
Mr. or Ms. Anonymous, do you really have to use such foul language?
This thread is freakin hilarious..and Im starving!!!
Here is my version I call them CINNACHIPS. [ Rice Paper sheets broken into pieces and deep fried at 375* for only a few seconds. Once they poof remove them and sprinkle with lots of cinnamon and sugar] (I buy the rice paper at Walmart in the Oriental foods section. The brand I use is the THREE LADIES BRAND)
Just buy them from Taco Bell people. What is all this fuss about. It cost you more to buy the ingredients than they would cost in at the Bell.
Actually it really is just fried noodles dude I worked there and made em myself
Taco bell is more than thirty minutes away :(
Ok I started just looking up the recipe but then I started reading the comments and you people are fucking hilarious. It's like reading a skit from dumb n dumber or watching red vs blue. I love this site.
In hopes if trying this out and making them for my kids I got everything required on the recipe. I just tried it right now and its a DUD. All it did was smell up the house with the burnt smell of noodles. Somethings not right and all it does is waste time and money when its not right. Thanks for wasting my money.
You sure have a lot of class talking like that. It's time to grow up. Nobody wants to see you ignorance. You don't know who is going to read this comments. I'm sure your parents are proud. Wow!
Hi
Gluten free noodles
Gluten free noodles
How about drink a glass of water and eat a salad it's waaayyyy more healthier than this mess geesh
If your going to get buthurt about what you read on the internet than dont go on the fucking internet than. Pussy fuck
If your going to get buthurt about what you read on the internet than dont go on the fucking internet than. Pussy fuck
Fuckity fuck fuck fucking lying ass bitch!!!! This recipe is bullshit and there is not even a real place called taco bell...stupid hoe salad is for gays.
What's up TigaHotty? Lemme sprinkle some cinnamon and sugar on you and lick it off��
So quick to judge when someone tried to give you a great recipe. This will work if you get the correct noodle. That is hard to find - but I have wasted several dollars trying different noodle types.
I would ask someone to post a picture of the box of noodles so we could find them but only a couple of folks that posted on here deserves to know- such complainers and vulgar language from a couple as well-

Everyone reading these comments should do not only themselves but the world a favor and kill yourself right now. Eat a bullet, drink bleach, a handful of pills, noose, you decide.
It's canola oil. Canola just sounds better than rapeseed.
I guess I'm a dumb ass as well!! I work @ Taco Hell and got the same results as above🙈🙉🙊
G..Grapeseed.Not Canola.
350 not 500 one the oil
Grapeseed canola can't take heat like that.

Wow!!!!!!!
Great idea !
I am agree with you by following :
"Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
Rotinni noodles
(you must use a rice based noodle)
3 cups oil, peanut oil preferred"
Great thanks for sharing!
:)
The comments and the original recipe are hilarious with all the misinformation. ...and you vote?
Ingredients:
"Twist: Wheat flour, yellow corn meal, rice flour, salt. Cinnamon sugar: sugar, cinnamon, soybean oil, maltodextrin or dextrin, natural flavors. Prepared in canola oil. Contains: Wheat"
What did we possibly learn? It is primarily wheat based. I would suspect the noodles are a proprietary blend of flours. It is fried in canola oil, not peanut oil.
Here is a link to the nutrition information from Taco Bell:

Fuck yeah
The noodles are the only expenditure of about $2 for a shit ton ....
How about you toss my salad
I'm stoned and researching whether or not this can actually be true. My brain says no, but my heart wants to believe it is. I don't even want to make these at home and don't particularly care for them from Taco Bell, I just want to know the truth. Someone needs to YouTube it if it's really how they're made (please let me know if there is one because I've been looking for a while with no success).
P.S. The comments just made my night.
Were you using rice noodles or regular noodles? The noodles won't puff if they aren't rice
No one mentioned Grapeseed. Rapeseed was mentioned, which exists as well, and is alternatively known as Canola
To me, it sounds like the one who got butthurt by what was read on the internet is the same person who read the recipe and made and angry post of failure.

They worked for me. I used rice flakes (triangular rice noodles - 90% rice, 8% water and 2% salt), deep fried at 180C/375F, dropped them straight into a paper bag containing cinnamon sugar and shook them up. I've never had Taco Bell Cinnamon Twists but these were yummy - crispy, melt-in-your mouth and sweet.
These are my absloute favorite of all time. Would love to be able to make them myself.. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

I sell equipment to Frito-Lay which owns Taco Bell and Pepsi Co. Along with many other brands, and everyone one here is wrong. They are made just like a Cheetos. There is a machine I sell called an Extruder, that takes the Corn Flour, water, Wheat flour, Sugar, Salt, Rice Flour, Cornstarch and Caramel Coloring. Blends it together into a dough and then presses it thru a nozzle that has an air jet in the middle of the nozzle which puffs air into the dough. A knife rotates on the tip of the nozzle, cutting off the twists to the makers desired length by speeding up for shorter twists and slowing down for longer twists. Once cut the directly fall into a vat of either Cottonseed or Canola oil that is set at 345℉ + or - 10℉ depending upon the desired length of twists. They travel across the vat and are pulled onto a metal draining chain. Which takes about 3 minutes for them to come off the nozzle go thru the oil and come out onto the chain. They then go onto a machine called an enroaber which covers them in cinnamon and sugar if they are going to be bagged and sold as a ready to eat product or they skip this enroabing step and bag them without the cinnamon and sugar and just bag them for when they go to Taco Bell, which just heats them for 1:45 in their fryers to warm them and make them wet with oil to get the cinnamon and sugar to stick to them and then they bag them in a .125 oz. Wrapper and sell them to you for $1-$2.50 each mini bag hot. I also sell this machinery to other companies like Rudolph's pork rinds www.Rudolphfoods.com which make them the exact same way and sell them in 3 - 10 oz. Bags for $1-$3 at any Walmart or Dollar General Store's. So save yourself a major headache and buy them or find a recipe for Multigrain Churros as their the exact same thing too. Hope this helps, Dan Young, Young Supply Co. Inc. Dyoung2183@ gmail dot com
Thanks for ruining the party you fact fucker! Dan Young, mr. Know it all killed the show.
Just by a big box of cinnamon toast crunch cereal and eat it dry.
I've worked and managed a few Taco Bells and we always received bags of what looked like dried twisty pasta. They puff up quite a bit in the fryer. I've never researched the best home noodle for it but rice or corn both make sense and oil temp is key
Rapeseed is not a plant I hope.
Rapeseed is not a plant I hope.
I've spent my last two pay checks buying fryers and different brands/type pasta. I haven't had any success and today my lights got turned off . I'm hoping that I can return my fryer and get the money for the power bill. If they refuse to give me cash and give me a Walmart gift card will anyone but it from me please . We need out lights on
haha funny.
OK. The twisty things look like pasta but the are not pasta. Guess what - they have a recipe they created and run it through a machine to make twisty things.
If you glaze (that is put sugar on) a bagel, it is still not a donut.
They come in bins
No box
Canadians are more polite.
i used gluten free, a rice/corn combo and all mine did was puff a tiny bit ( not like they show) and tasted like burnt pasta. not all airy loke taco bell.
You have to buy them from a Mexican meat market. They are really pork rhinds
so there no almonds in it was almost worried am allergic to almonds and ate a couple bags of cinnamon twist not thinking to ask worker at taco bell
Wow, I just wanted to make some cinnamon twists but found this thread. Very entertaining.
Exactly what brands of noodles contain rice
I am 65 just ate some cinnamon crisps looked them up & THIS IS SOME FUNNY FUCKING CHIT face is sore from laughing God bless all ya all
It is better comedy than the three stooges funny phuks
You have to buy the Duros Mexican wheat pellet Twists
on eBay $25 for 7 pounds and that makes about 100 pounds of cinnamon twists.
Wheat? People that ik work at taco bell say it has to be rice and corn based noodle but they dont know where they get the noodles or brand..i was told it cant be bought at most grocery stores.
goofy people. rapeseed oil is Grapeseed oil and the poster missed the "g". Certainly not canola.
Good job. I have been debating on whether or not to respond to some posts, but decided against it, considering the people 1) Work at Taco Bell and 2) Are under the assumption that if it looks like boxed rotini, it IS boxed rotini.
Thanks for giving me back my hope that there is intelligent life out there.
It is not any type of rotini pasta sold to the public. Taco Bell has them made by a company, specifically for their restaurants. The amounts are key.
You can buy a bag of "Wheat duros twists" on amazon. They come in a few shapes, mostly wheels, and are dark in color. I fried them tonight. My son said they are just like the real thing, but I thought they were nuttier and not as light and crispy. I used vegetable oil at 350°. Fried for 20 seconds
Yes, churros are made that way, but Taco Bells cinnamon twists are NOT. They actually order a proprietary flour blended dry pasta that is delivered to their restaurants in that "dry pasta" form. They are then deep fried until they puff up. Emrobing is not performed; instead, they use a hotel pan filled with cinnamon and sugar, shaking to coat.
Yes, wheat. One, try not to take a Taco Bell employees word for anything; especially when anyone can simply read the ingredients and see "wheat, rice, corn, etc". No, it isnt sold in stores. A company uses taco bells recipe to mass produce what is a blended dry pasta.
Duros! The “noodle” is duros!!
