Deep Fried Ice Cream Balls - cooking recipe

Ingredients

12 oz sponge cake, coarsely chopped
4 large scoops vanilla ice cream
3 None large eggs
1/2 cup dried breadcrumbs
None None vegetable oil, to deep-fry
None None ice cream toppings, to serve

Preparation

Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Process cake to fine crumbs. Transfer to a large bowl. Working quickly, roll ice cream scoops in cake crumbs to coat evenly. Place on prepared tray. Freeze for 30 mins, or until firm. Reserve leftover crumbs.
Whisk eggs in a shallow bowl. Dip balls in egg then reserved cake crumbs to coat. Pat firmly to secure. Return to prepared tray. Freeze for 30 mins, or until firm. Repeat coating and freezing with remaining egg and dried breadcrumbs.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Working in batches, deep-fry ice cream balls for 1 min, or until golden brown. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain. Serve immediately with ice cream toppings of your choice.
