Fried Ice Cream

Ok here goes, for a really decadent desert if you don't mind doing some work try some fried ice cream. You can make it at home, it is easy but there is alot of prep work, you need to start this one the night before you plan on having this.
FRIED ICE CREAM
ice cream- what ever flavor you like- Most recently used Chocolate chip cookie dough and vanilla
2-3 Cups of Corn flakes
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1 egg
Oil for deep frying
Chocolate topping
Flour tortillas
Honey
Whipped Cream
Sugar and cinnamon the amount will vary, use your best judgement. This is used for the bowl you make with the tortilla. Place in a shallow pan mix it together.

Put corn flakes in a good size bowl and use a muddler to crush them into small flakes, but not too fine. Mix your cinnamon into flakes. Beat egg.Scoop ice cream into balls, you can use you hands like you are making a snowball;. Quickly put ice cream ball into egg. Quickly roll coated ice cream balls into crumbs and place into freezer. Freeze overnight. Heat oil to 400 degrees in a deep fat fryer. Using a slotted spoon, place flour tortilla into oil and as it start to fry try to create a bowl with it, take out and drain oil and while still warm coat with cinnamon sugar, set aside repeat for number of guests. Then lower one ice cream ball at a time into the hot oil. Fry until coating begins to brown, 10-12 seconds. Place into tortilla shell, serve immediately, with chocolate topping and or honey and whipped cream.
Makes as many servings as you make ice cream balls.
