How To Make not-fried "fried" ice cream
-
Step 1Line a rimmed baking sheet with waxed paper. With a large spoon or ice cream scoop, form 8 ice cream balls, each about 2 1/2 inches in diameter. Place on baking sheet, then place in freezer for about an hour.
-
Step 2Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
-
Step 3Meanwhile coat another large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. In a medium bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; mix well then spread on the baking sheet. Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly browned and crisp.
-
Step 4Place in a shallow bowl and allow to cool completely. Line another rimmed baking sheet pan with waxed paper.
-
Step 5Remove ice cream balls from freezer and roll in the cereal mixture, coating on all sides. Place on lined baking sheet and freeze for 2 to 3 hours, or until ice cream is very firm.
-
Step 6Serve immediately or cover and keep frozen until ready to use.
-
Step 7NOTE: If you would like this even lighter that it already is, reduced-fat ice cream or frozen yogurt will work just fine. The way the coating is done, the finished dessert still comes out as yummy as if it was deep-fried.
