Are you ready for an explosion of your taste buds? You may have heard of deep fried Oreos, deep fried Twinkies, or even deep fried pizza. But have you ever eaten Fried Ice Cream? When we think of deep fried we normally think of the American south and their delicious fried chicken but did you know that the Scottish will deep fry almost anything. Do you think they’ve tried to deep fry ice cream? We think deep fried ice cream is the perfect fall treat to enculturate yourself. So be a Scot and try this warm and cold mix to brighten up your fall chill.

Ingredients

• 48 oz. container of Udderly Vanilla or your favorite Cold Cow flavor
• 3 cups of crushed corn flakes
• 1 ½ cups of vanilla sandwich cookie crumbs
• 3 teaspoons of sugar
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• Bottle of canola oil
• Whipped cream

Instructions

1. Scoop the ice cream with large ice cream scooper into a 9x13 pan. Cover the pan and freeze until scoops are solid, usually about an hour.
2. Combine crushed corn flakes, cookie crumbs, and sugar into a bowl.
3. Once completely frozen, dip each scoop into the crumb mixture, then into beaten eggs, then back into crumb mixture. Cover the ice cream completely.
4. Place the coated ice cream balls back into the freezer for at least 2 hours.
5. Heat about 3 inches of canola oil in a small pot to 400 degrees.
6. Remove ice cream balls seconds before frying. Do not let them sit out. Lower each ball into the oil alone. Fry for about 30 seconds until the ball is golden brown.
7. Top with whipped cream, serve immediately, and enjoy!
