Instructions
 

  • Scoop ice cream into eight ½-cup-sized balls.
  • Place the ice cream balls on a baking sheet.
  • Freeze the ice cream balls until firm, about 1 hour.
  • In a shallow dish, combine the crushed cornflakes cereal.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy.
  • Roll each ice cream ball in the egg whites, then roll in the crushed cornflakes, covering the ice cream completely.
  • Repeat the rolling process if necessary to fully coat the ice cream balls.
  • Freeze the coated ice cream balls until firm, about 3 hours.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Using a slotted spoon, fry 1 or 2 ice cream balls at a time in the hot oil until golden, 10 to 15 seconds.
  • Drain the fried ice cream balls quickly on paper towels.
  • Serve immediately.
