Foodie Friday - Mexican Fried Ice Cream


With Cinco de Mayo a few weeks away, the Girlfriends thought you might want some yummy Mexican recipes!! I love mexican fried ice cream! I got hooked on it years and years ago when we would head to Chi-chi's for family celebrations. Now that Chi-chi's is closed, I have to rely on my sister-in-law Kelly's recipe for Mexican Fried Ice Cream. The best thing about it - it isn't fried, so that makes it super healthy. *wink, wink*

Mexican Fried Ice Cream

5 cups frosted flakes, slightly crushed
5 Tbsp. butter, melted
2 Tbsp. cinnamon
1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream

Mix together frosted flakes, butter, and cinnamon. Reserve half of the mixture and set aside. Spread out crumb mixture in the bottom of the 9 x 13 pan. Put it in the freezer.

In a bowl, whip the ice cream with a mixer until soft. Spread ice cream over the crumb mixture. Top it with the reserve crumb mixture and freeze until firm.

Serve with your choice of toppings: chocolate syrup (yummy), honey, whipped cream, or crushed strawberries.

Enjoy mi amigas!!

Tu amiga,
Michelle
