Fried Ice Cream

Servings 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1.5 quarts vanilla ice cream
  • 6 c. Post Cinnamon Toasters cereal crushed into crumbs
  • 4 egg whites
  • 2 qt. oil
  • additional ice cream toppings for serving

Instructions

  • Place a sheet of wax paper on a cookie sheet; set aside. Scoop out six large scoops of vanilla ice cream and place on wax paper. You can form them more into a ball or leave them as is because the coating will cover them up anyway. Cover with more wax paper and freeze 3-4 hours until frozen solid.
  • Place cereal crumbs in a bowl and add egg whites. Stir together to combine. Roll each ice cream ball into the cereal crumbs and place back onthe cookie sheet. Cover and freeze again for at least an hour, or until ready to fry and serve.
  • Pour oil into a large pot and heat to about 375°. Use a slotted fry spoon to place one ice cream ball at a time into the oil. Heat until coating is a nice golden brown, about 20 seconds. Remove and place on a cooling rack with paper towels or a cookie sheet underneath for excess oil to drip.
  • Serve immediately with favorite ice cream toppings. Enjoy!
