Quite a few years back when my Philip was still alive he took me to what became my favorite restaurant for the first time. After dinner at Senor Frogs, he ordered us dessert, Fried Ice Cream. At first thought, ODD, but after tasting this incredible combination I was addicted! First thing I did when I got home was go in search of a recipe that tasted that good! After trying out a few I found two in the same place and they are my favorite! If you have never tried Fried Ice Cream, or even if you have, You definitely have to give this a try! The original recipe didnt call for the coconut or cinnamon I added them in! Love coconut!! Adore cinnamon!!
