Answer 2

I've had fried ice cream at Mexican restaurants for YEARS now. Its really nothing new. I believe they do their ice cream balls rolled in gram cracker crumbs, cinnamon and coconut. The white coco powder is interesting in the sense that, well, what the hell is holding the ice cream together! :)

Answer 3

I've had something close to what Irina had and it was absolutely delicious! But you do need to be careful making it. Obviously you're working with oil so go slow and pay attention and watch out because if you rush through the recipe, it can get all over the place. Enjoy it!

Answer 4

Yes, I have had it many times, easy to make and fun to eat. But then being 51, I have had lots of time to experience things like that.

Answer 5

I had it at a local Mexican restaurant and it was the NASTIEST thing I have EVER put in my mouth. I thought it was supposed to be fried, but they made it with CORN FLAKES. UGH!!!

Answer 6

It is wonderful and here is a recipe for you:

CRISPY MACADAMIA NUT FRIED ICE-CREAM BALLS WITH CHOCOLATE MACADAMIA NUT SAUCE
The ice-cream balls are a perfect dessert for small groups.
For ice-cream balls
1 quart super-premium vanilla ice cream such as Häagen-Dazs
1 1/2 cups macadamia nuts (about 7 ounces)
3 large eggs
6 cups cornflakes (about 7 ounces)
about 5 cups vegetable oil for deep-frying
confectioners' sugar for dusting

Accompaniment: chocolate macadamia nut sauce

Line a shallow baking pan with wax paper and put pan in freezer 5 minutes. With a 1-ounce ice cream scoop (1 1/2 inches in diameter) scoop out 12 ice-cream balls and transfer to pan. Freeze balls, covered, until very hard, at least 3 hours and up to 8.

Preheat oven to 350° F.

While ice cream is hardening, in a baking pan toast nuts in one layer in middle of oven until golden, about 10 minutes, and cool. Finely chop nuts and transfer to a shallow bowl.

Roll balls in nuts, pressing lightly, until well coated. Freeze balls, covered, until very hard, at least 1 hours and up to 8.

In a bowl lightly beat eggs and in another bowl crumble cornflakes. Dip balls in egg, letting excess drip off, and roll in cornflakes to coat. Freeze balls, covered, at least 1 hours and up to 8. Reserve remaining egg and corn flakes, chilling egg.

Repeat dipping and coating procedure with reserved egg and cornflakes. Freeze balls, covered, until very hard, at least 3 hours and up to 8.

In a 3-quart heavy kettle heat 2 inches oil over moderate heat until a deep-fat thermometer registers 375° F. Working in batches of 2 or 3, fry balls, turning them, about 20 seconds, or until golden and crisp. With a slotted spoon transfer balls to paper towels to drain. Make sure oil returns to 375° F between batches.

Dust ice-cream balls with confectioners' sugar and serve immediately with sauce.

Makes 12 balls, serving 4.
