Fried Ice Cream Recipe
Make this fried ice cream recipe for a delicious Mexican-inspired treat the whole family will love! This dessert mixes classic vanilla ice cream with a delightfully crunchy shell to make a dish you will want to make again and again.
Ingredients 16 oz. chocolate chip or vanilla ice cream
4 8” flour tortillas
2 C. cornflakes cereal crushed
Oil for frying
1 ½ T. sugar
Cinnamon-sugar
3 ½ tsp. ground cinnamon
Whipped cream
2 eggs
4 maraschino cherries
1 tsp. water
Instructions Dip a half-cup measuring cup in water. In the measuring cup, fill with vanilla ice cream and level off. Empty the leveled-off ice cream balls flat-side down onto a cutting board. Freeze the ice cream balls for 2 hours or more. Place 2 cups corn-flake cereal in a bowl. Place egg wash made from 2 eggs in another bowl. Add sugar and ground cinnamon to cereal. Mix and then divide the mixture evenly. Roll frozen ice cream ball in first bowl of cereal. Mix the newly-coated ice cream ball in egg wash. Dip the ball into the second bowl of cereal. Set aside the ice cream ball and repeat process with others. Set the ice cream balls in the freezer for 4 to 6 hours. Get 4 tortillas with an 8-inch circumference, or cut a larger size down to 8 inches. Place tortilla in a soup ladle and dip into hot oil. Using a spoon or another ladle, press down into the tortilla to keep it in place until crisp. Remove from heat, drain, and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Use tortillas as a bowl for the ice cream. Once the tortilla bowls are done, place each frozen ice cream ball in the oil for 10 seconds. Remove and place into tortilla bowls. Top with whipped cream and cherries. Serve immediately and enjoy!
