Ingredients:
- 4 cups of your favorite ice cream flavors
- 2 cups of corn flakes cereal
- 1 cup of crushed graham crackers
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions:
Step 1: Start by scooping out balls of ice cream. Use an ice cream scoop to create uniform portions. Place the scoops on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze them for at least one hour.
Step 2: In separate bowls, crush the corn flakes cereal and graham crackers. You can use a food processor or place them in a sealed plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
Step 3: Take the frozen ice cream balls and roll them in the crushed cereal and graham crackers, coating them thoroughly. Return the coated ice cream balls to the baking sheet and put them back in the freezer for another hour.
Step 4: In a shallow dish, beat the eggs and add the ground cinnamon. Mix well until the cinnamon is evenly distributed.
Step 5: Retrieve the coated ice cream balls from the freezer. Dip each ball into the egg mixture, making sure it is fully coated. Let any excess mixture drip off.
Step 6: Fill a deep pan or skillet with vegetable oil, about 2-3 inches deep. Heat the oil to approximately 350°F (175°C) over medium-high heat.
Step 7: Carefully place the coated ice cream balls into the hot oil using a slotted spoon. Fry each ball for about 15-20 seconds or until the coating turns golden brown. Be sure to work quickly to prevent the ice cream from melting.
Step 8: Once fried, transfer the balls onto a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Allow them to cool for a minute or two before serving.
Step 9: Serve your homemade fried ice cream in dessert bowls or on crispy taco shells. You can garnish it with whipped cream, chocolate syrup, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra touch of flavor.
Enjoy this delectable treat with friends and family. The combination of the cold and creamy ice cream with the warm and crispy shell is simply irresistible.
