Fried Chicken Ice Cream

Fried Chicken Ice Cream is a unique dessert that combines the crispy, savory texture of fried chicken with the creamy sweetness of vanilla ice cream. This quirky fusion treat is topped with crushed cornflakes, chocolate-covered cookie “bones,” and caramel sauce for a fun, one-of-a-kind experience.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes (including freezing)
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pint vanilla ice cream
  • 1/2 cup crushed cornflakes
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips or melted chocolate
  • 1/4 cup crushed waffle cones
  • 1/4 cup caramel sauce
  • 1 tbsp sea salt (optional, for a savory touch)

Instructions

  • Scoop the vanilla ice cream into small bowls or dessert cups.
  • Melt the chocolate in a microwave or over a double boiler. Once melted, dip the ice cream scoops into the chocolate to coat them evenly.
  • Roll the chocolate-coated ice cream in the crushed cornflakes and crushed waffle cones to mimic the crispy coating of fried chicken.
  • Drizzle caramel sauce over the ice cream and sprinkle a pinch of sea salt for an extra savory layer.
  • Place the ice cream in the freezer for 30 minutes to set and firm up before serving.
  • Serve and enjoy this creative sweet and savory fusion treat!

Notes

  • For best results, use high-quality vanilla ice cream to enhance the overall flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of salt and caramel sauce to suit your taste preferences.
  • If you prefer a more “fried” look, you can freeze the ice cream before adding the coating to ensure it firms up better.
