Fried Ice Cream Ingredients

Method

Fried Ice Cream Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ice Cream

    Scoop the vanilla ice cream into balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for at least 2 hours until firm.

  2. 2

    Crush Cornflakes

    In a food processor or by hand, crush the cornflakes into small pieces. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Batter

    In a bowl, mix together the flour, eggs, milk, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  4. 4

    Coat the Ice Cream

    Remove the ice cream balls from the freezer. Dip each ball into the batter, ensuring they are fully coated, then roll them in the crushed cornflakes to form a crust. Repeat for all ice cream balls.

  5. 5

    Deep Fry

    In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry the coated ice cream balls for about 10-15 seconds until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately while hot, drizzled with chocolate sauce, topped with whipped cream, and garnished with cherries if desired.
