| Fried Ice Cream |
Ingredients:
- 1 pint ice cream, any flavor
- 1 loaf sliced white bread
- 6 to 8 cups Canola oil - for frying
- Pancake mix - just add water
Directions:
1. Place a plate or sheet pan in the freezer and let it chill for at least 1 hour.
2. Using a large ice cream scoop, make balls of ice cream and place them on the sheet pan then return to the freezer for 2 hours.
3. Cut the crusts off the sliced bread and using about 2 slices per ice cream ball and flatten with rolling pin, form the bread around the ice cream using your hands to pack it like a snow ball. Once it's completely covered return it to the freezer.
4. Prepare pancake mix, add water and dip the balls into mix. In a medium saucepan, heat 3 inches of canola oil to 365F. Drop the covered ice cream balls, one at a time into the hot oil and fry, turning occasionally so they color evenly, until golden brown. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
5. Garnish with caramel, chocolate or chocolate chips. Serve immediately.
