Ingredients
For the Ice Cream Sandwiches:
- 2 Ice Cream Scoops vanilla or your favorite flavor
- 4 Marie Biscuits or similar crisp cookies
For the Batter:
- 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour also known as maida
- 1/4 cup Semolina also known as suji
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/4 cup Water more or less as needed for desired batter consistency
For Frying:
- 2 cup Vegetable Oil or your preferred frying oil
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.
