Delicious no-fry fried ice cream recipe for a delightful treat

Hi Bold Bakers! So I love when I see fried ice cream on a menu, it has a lovely sweet crispy coating around the outside and then the cold vanilla ice cream in the middle. But guess what? You do not need to deep fry the ice cream to create this delicious dessert. And I'm gonna show you my trick right now. So let's get started. First off, the recipe for this can be found on BiggerBolderBaking.com and if you're new to my channel then welcome and make sure you tap that subscribe button so you don't miss out on any upcoming videos. Okay. So what is no-fry fried ice cream? Well basically what it is, we're gonna create a lovely sweet coating around the outside of our ice cream so we actually don't have to deep fry it, so you get the exact same results. I mean if you don't have to fry something then why would you? So we're gonna make this delicious little treat and you're just gonna see how great the results are. The first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna start out on a tray and we're gonna scoop our ice cream just to make sure we can get it lovely and frozen before we coat it. So traditionally fried ice cream is vanilla ice cream but obviously you can use whatever Whatever ice cream that you like. Also, you can use my two-ingredient no-machine ice cream and that will work really well too. So I'm just gonna get really big scoops, then just place it onto your tray lined with parchment paper. Do as many scoops as you like, you'll probably get six to eight portions out of these cornflakes. Okay great, these are nice and big. So now what we're gonna do from here is pop these guys into the freezer for a minimum of an hour because we want to get them really lovely and hard before we coat them. So while the ice cream is in the freezer, we are going to create our coating. Now my secret ingredient is corn flakes, it gives you a lovely, crispy, crunchy coating on the outside, it works so well. Now what I'm going to do is put this into a little food processor, and we just want to blend them up until you get kind of a coarse breadcrumb-like texture. If you don't have a food processor, do not worry, put them into a Ziploc bag, get a rolling pin and just bash them. We're also gonna add a little bit of cinnamon into the corn flakes because it's gonna It's gonna give it lovely flavor and a little bit of warmth. Once they're blended, this is the texture that we're going for, there's some nice fine bits in there but there's also some lumps. Okay lovely, now our next step is to heat this up with a little bit of butter. So in a frying pan over medium heat we're gonna melt our butter. Any kind of dessert with all this butter is going to be good. So something to note about this recipe, you can use it all non-dairy and that will taste really good too. So into our melted butter we're going to scatter over our corn flakes. Then we're gonna take a spatula and we're just gonna cook our cornflakes a little bit until they get nice and toasty and cooked with all the butter. So just keep on stirring them as they cook. Bash it down with a spatula just to make sure that your cornflakes get totally coated in butter. So I remember the first time I ever had fried ice cream, it was when I was living in Australia and I was working in a mountain resort. And we went to this Chinese restaurant and I had fried ice cream, everybody else with me ordered it because I'd never had it before, and I can still actually taste it, it was so good. And I think it actually had cake crumbs on the outside, it's delicious. Don't walk away from your saucepan when you're doing this, just keep on stirring so it gets an even toast. So this is looking lovely and toasted, it took around 3-4 minutes over medium-low heat, and it's changed color, this is perfect. So I'm going to turn off the heat now. And I'm going to add in a little bit of sugar, this just gives extra sweetness. Once you add it in, just give it a good stir around, and then we're done. So once you've removed it from the heat, just go ahead and sprinkle it onto a baking tray. Then we're just gonna let this sit here, cool down, and then we're ready to coat our ice cream. Now if you don't have cornflakes, feel free to use any kind of cereal, like Rice Krispies would work really well, if you also want to use chocolate cereal that would taste great. So don't worry, you can use whatever you have at home. You would not believe how good this coating smells, oh delicious. Okay so this has cooled down so now we're gonna take out our pieces of ice cream one by one and we're gonna roll them. So we're gonna do this step kind of fast, and all you want to do is just scoop up your cornflakes around the side of the ice cream, and just give it a nice push so they all stick All the way around. Can you see this? It's already creating a crust, lovely, it's getting nice and covered, any little holes just shove some more corn flakes on there. This is looking really good. So now I really like this recipe when you think of things like birthday parties, even sleepovers when you have some friends getting together and you're going to have lots of food and nice things, this is a great recipe for that. Working with ice cream can be a little bit temperamental so one thing you want to make sure for this stage is that your ice cream is really frozen solid because it'll make it so much easier to work with. So once they're all rolled we're gonna pop them back into the freezer for around another 20 minutes just to let them firm up even more. Okay, so our fried ice cream is nice and frozen, so now on Bigger Bolder Baking we love to drizzle on stuff, sprinkle on things, make it really big and bold. So I'm gonna put some chocolate sauce over the top, this will go really well with the vanilla ice cream. And then, because I'm a big fan of whipped cream, we're gonna pipe some whipped cream on top. This almost makes it look like a sundae. Beautiful. Okay. And then the cherry on top is going to be the cherry on top. Give it a lovely bit of color. Oh, look at that, how pretty is that? So sweet, and so simple to make too. Okay, now I want to show you the crust and what it looks like on the inside. Now my favorite part, this is so good, oh, this definitely deserves a happy dance. You definitely should try and make this, it's summertime, you're on vacation, you have some extra time on your hands, get into the kitchen and start baking.
