Mexican "Un Fried" Ice Cream is a popular dessert that originated in Mexico and is now enjoyed all over the world. Traditionally, fried ice cream is made by coating ice cream in a batter and then deep-frying it to create a crispy layer on the outside. However, this recipe opts for a healthier option by using a coating of Rice Krispies, honey, and cinnamon. The result is a unique and delicious dessert that combines crunchy and creamy textures. Serve this dessert at your next Mexican-themed party for an unforgettable treat!

Instructions

2.	Freeze the ice cream balls until they are completely solid.
3.	Combine Rice Krispies, honey, and cinnamon in a wide bowl.
4.	Remove the ice cream balls from the freezer and quickly coat them in the Rice Krispies mixture.
5.	Serve immediately and enjoy!

PROS

This recipe creates a fun and unique twist on traditional fried ice cream.

The use of Rice Krispies makes for a crunchy coating that pairs perfectly with creamy vanilla ice cream.

CONS

The ice cream balls need to be frozen solid before coating, which can take some time.

Additionally, the Rice Krispies mixture can be messy and get everywhere while coating the ice cream.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

As with any dessert, this recipe should be enjoyed in moderation, as it is high in calories and sugar.
