Fried Ice Cream Delight (Print)

Vanilla ice cream balls coated in sweet cinnamon cornflakes and flash-fried to create a crispy exterior with a cool creamy center.

# Ingredients:

→ Ice Cream

01 - 950 ml vanilla ice cream

→ Coating

02 - 60 g cornflakes, crushed
03 - 6 g ground cinnamon
04 - 25 g granulated sugar

→ Frying

05 - 950 ml vegetable oil

→ Garnish (optional)

06 - Whipped cream
07 - Chocolate syrup
08 - Maraschino cherries

# Directions:

01 - Scoop vanilla ice cream into uniform balls and arrange them on a parchment-lined baking tray. Freeze until very firm, at least 2 hours.
02 - In a shallow dish, thoroughly mix the crushed cornflakes with ground cinnamon and granulated sugar.
03 - Roll each frozen ice cream ball in the cornflake mixture, pressing gently to ensure complete coverage. Refreeze the coated balls for a further 30 minutes.
04 - In a deep fryer or heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat vegetable oil to 190°C.
05 - Gently lower one or two coated ice cream balls into the hot oil, frying briefly for 15-30 seconds until golden brown.
06 - Transfer immediately to a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve straightaway with optional whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and maraschino cherries.

# Notes:

01 - Work quickly when frying as the ice cream will begin to melt almost immediately after hitting the hot oil.
