Fried Ice Cream Ingredients

Method

Fried Ice Cream Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ice Cream

    Scoop the vanilla ice cream into 4 equal balls and place them on a baking sheet. Freeze for at least 2 hours until firm.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Coating

    In a blender or food processor, crush the cornflakes into small crumbs. In a bowl, mix the flour, sugar, and cinnamon together. In another bowl, beat the eggs with the milk.

  3. 3

    Coat the Ice Cream

    Remove the ice cream balls from the freezer. Dip each ball first into the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture, and finally roll in the crushed cornflakes until well coated. Repeat for all balls.

  4. 4

    Freeze Again

    Place the coated ice cream balls back in the freezer for at least 1 hour to harden.

  5. 5

    Fry the Ice Cream

    In a deep pan or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the frozen ice cream balls and fry for about 10-15 seconds until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Quickly remove the fried ice cream and drain on paper towels. Serve immediately with chocolate syrup, whipped cream, and cherries on top.
