Method
Preparation
Prepare the Ice Cream Balls
Scoop the vanilla ice cream into balls using an ice cream scoop. Place the scoops on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze the ice cream balls for at least 2 hours or until solid.
Coating
Prepare the Coating
In a large bowl, crush the cornflakes into small pieces. Mix in the cinnamon and sugar. In a separate bowl, combine the flour with a pinch of salt.
Batter
Make the Batter
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until fully combined. This will be the batter for coating the ice cream.
Frying
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accurate temperature.
Fry the Ice Cream
Take the frozen ice cream balls from the freezer. Quickly dip each ball into the flour, then into the egg mixture, and finally coat with the cornflake mixture. Carefully place the coated ice cream balls into the hot oil, frying them for about 10-15 seconds or until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serving
Serve the Fried Ice Cream
Place the fried ice cream balls on plates and drizzle with chocolate sauce. Top with whipped cream and cherries as desired. Serve immediately while hot and crispy.
