Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 scoops Vanilla ice cream
- 2 cups Cornflakes
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Honey or chocolate syrup (optional, for topping)
- 0.5 cup Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
- 4 pieces Cherries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Scoop four evenly-sized balls of vanilla ice cream and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Put the sheet in the freezer for at least 30 minutes to allow the ice cream to firm up.
While the ice cream is freezing, prepare the coating. Crush the cornflakes into small pieces using your hands or a rolling pin, aiming for a coarse texture. Set aside.
In a skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the crushed cornflakes, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon. Stir continuously for about 4-5 minutes, or until the cornflakes are golden brown and fragrant. Remove the skillet from heat and allow the mixture to cool completely.
Once the cornflake mixture is cooled, remove the ice cream balls from the freezer. Roll each ice cream ball in the cornflake mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating sticks evenly. Repeat until all the ice cream balls are fully coated.
Serve immediately or place the coated ice cream balls back in the freezer for a firmer texture if desired.
Optional: Drizzle each serving with honey or chocolate syrup, top with whipped cream, and garnish with a cherry for a decorative touch.
