Fried Ice Cream
Introduction
Fried ice cream is a wonderful dessert which comprises a warm, crispy layer on the outside and a cold, creamy ice cream inside. Fried ice cream originating from the blending of Mexican and Asian culinary techniques has turned into one of the favorite desserts of many food connoisseurs because of its extraordinary texture and dramatic serving. To prepare it, ice cream balls are covered with a layer of crushed cornflakes or cookie crumbs which, after being deep-fried for a short time, develop a crusty covering that is hot and crispy on the outside and cold ice cream on the inside that creates a contrast. It might be slightly complicated at first but with a bit of patience and getting ready, fried ice cream is a piece of cake to make at home.
Expertly, this recipe helps one to sporadically perfect the combination of flavors and textures. The first step is to girdle the ice cream in frozen, solid balls of ice cream that can endure the quick frying process. Then ice cream balls are covered with a substantial cinnamon-seasoned cornflakes patting embrace giving extra crunch and taste. After just a few seconds in hot oil, the coating is golden and crispy without compromising the frozen dessert inside. Fried ice cream is perfect for any special events where it is likely to allure visitors with its crunchiness and warmth inside and creaminess outside.

Cook Time: 1-2 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes

Method
1. Prepare the Ice Cream Balls:
Make 6-8 balls of ice cream (according to the measurements you prefer) before putting them in the oven. Allow them to be in it for not less than 1 hour, so they become firm enough for usage.
2. Coat the Ice Cream:
Combine crushed cornflakes and cinnamon in a bowl. Beat the eggs with peas in another bowl. Roll each ice cream ball in the cornflake mixture, which is a good option, and then give it a second coating of the egg, ultimately falling in the cornflakes. This is a simple way to make sure the coating is firm. It is important to freeze for the second time for 30 minutes to make sure it is well-fixed.
3. Fry the Ice Cream:
Bring oil to a boil in a large pot or deep fryer to 375°F (190°C). The gradient of the batter should be light brown, and each ice cream ball should be in the oil for 10-15 seconds. Remove them very fast with a cooking spoon and left them on paper towels to be dry.
4. Serve:
Conveniently whip cream, use chocolate syrup, and caramel sauce. While fruits usually are added for festive or special occasions, the dessert is served plain. Furthermore, you may sprinkle it with frosted sugar to maximally emphasize taste of sweet food.
Notes
In order to keep the ice cream from melting during frying, you have to make sure that you have the ice cream balls completely frozen before you coat and fry them. You may explore with various ice cream flavors and coatings, for instance, crushed cookies or graham crackers, to make your own modification as well. Serve immediately after frying for the most contrasting in temperature and texture.
Conclusion
The dessert that you will serve is the coolest one ever - as you will enjoy a crispy crust and a cold filling at the same time, which is a unique experience. The preparation time is a token of huge respect that will not go unnoticed at any kind of celebration.
