Instructions
 

Prepare the Ice Cream Sandwiches

  • Spread a scoop of ice cream evenly onto one Marie biscuit. Top with another biscuit to create a sandwich. Repeat with remaining ice cream and biscuits.

Make the Batter

  • In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, semolina, and salt. Gradually add water, whisking until you achieve a smooth, pourable batter. Adjust water as needed.

Coat and Fry

  • Gently dip each ice cream sandwich into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, roll it in the semolina to create a slightly coarse, crispy exterior.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the coated ice cream sandwiches in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
  • Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. It's important to watch them closely, as they can brown quickly.

Serve

  • Remove the fried ice cream sandwiches from the oil and place them on a wire rack to drain excess oil. Serve immediately while still warm and crispy, or allow them to cool slightly.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Fried Ice Cream Sandwiches

  • Freeze the ice cream sandwiches for at least 30 minutes before frying: This helps them hold their shape and prevents the ice cream from melting too quickly during frying.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Overcrowding will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy sandwiches. Fry in batches if necessary.
  • Use a thermometer: Maintaining the correct oil temperature is crucial for even cooking and a crispy exterior. Use a deep-fry thermometer to ensure your oil stays at 350°F (175°C).
  • Get creative with toppings!: After frying, drizzle your fried ice cream sandwiches with chocolate sauce, caramel, or a dusting of powdered sugar for an extra touch of deliciousness.
