Ingredients

  • 1 quart vanilla ice cream
  • 1 cup crushed frosted cornflakes
  • 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes, or 1 cup chopped walnuts, or 1 cup cookie crumbs
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • Hot chocolate sauce, optional
  • Whipped cream, optional

Directions

With an ice cream scoop, form 4 large balls of ice cream. Place on a waxed paper lined sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Freeze for at least 2 hours.

In a bowl, combine the cornflake crumbs with either the coconut, walnuts or cookie crumbs (or any combination). Spread the mixture in a shallow dish.

Dip the ice cream balls in the crumb mixture and freeze for 30 minutes.

In a bowl, beat the eggs and sugar. Dip the coated ice cream balls into the eggs, then roll in the crumb mixture, coating completely. Freeze for 1 hour. (If necessary, or for a thicker crust, roll again in eggs and crumbs until the balls are completely coated.)

Heat the oil in a large pot or fryer to 400 degrees F. One at a time, lower the balls into the oil and fry until golden brown, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove from the oil and place in a dessert bowl. Drizzle with chocolate sauce and whipped cream, as desired. Repeat with the remaining ice cream.

    Fun recipe to make! Not one to do at the last minute...but, a keeper.

    Great recipe. I made a few changes to make it work for me. Rather than freezing the ice cream balls first, I created the ice cream balls and rolled them in the topping immediately. They stuck to the ice cream a lot easier because it was a bit softer. Then the second time I used the egg wash. For my topping, I mixed hard sugar cookies, frosted flakes, and coconut and used cinnamon in the egg wash. Great!

    These were really great. It was a lot easier than I expected it to be. I can't wait to make it again.
