How Do You Deep Fry Ice Cream Without It Melting?
To deep fry ice cream without it melting, you need to first freeze the ice cream balls thoroughly for several hours or overnight. Then, coat the balls with a layer of crushed cereal or cookies and freeze them again. When ready to fry, heat the oil to 375°F and quickly fry the ice cream for about 10 to 15 seconds until golden brown. The high temperature of the oil forms a crispy outer layer that protects the ice cream from melting, while the frozen ice cream inside remains cold. Serve the deep-fried ice cream with toppings like whipped cream, caramel sauce, and chocolate sauce.
