Method

Preparing the Ice Cream

1

Scoop the Ice Cream

Scoop the chocolate or vanilla ice cream into 4 equal-sized balls. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 1 hour to firm up.

Making the Cinnamon Crumb Coating

2

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

3

Prepare Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth.

4

Combine Mixtures

Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture, stirring until a batter forms.

Preparing the Tortilla Bowls

5

Shape the Tortillas

Preheat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. While the oil is heating, press each flour tortilla into the shape of a bowl using a heat-safe bowl or a frying basket.

6

Fry the Tortillas

Carefully place the shaped tortillas into the hot oil, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Frying the Ice Cream

7

Coat the Ice Cream

Once the ice cream balls are firm, dip each ball into the cinnamon batter, ensuring it is fully coated.

8

Deep-Fry the Ice Cream

Carefully place the coated ice cream balls into the hot oil and fry for about 30 seconds until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assembling and Serving

9

Assemble the Dish

Place a fried ice cream ball into each tortilla bowl. Drizzle with honey, and top with whipped cream and strawberry sauce.

10

Serve Immediately

Serve the deep-fried ice cream immediately while still warm and crispy.
