• Ready In: 1 hr

Ingredients

•  breyer's vanilla ice cream
•  vegetable oil
• 1⁄4 cup  chocolate cookie crumb
• 1⁄4 cup  desiccated coconut
• 1⁄4 cup  crushed granola cereal
• 1⁄4 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 1⁄4 cup sugar
• 1  teaspoon cinnamon
•  fried tortilla, for bowls,make fresh (optional)
•  whipped cream (optional)
•  grated chocolate (optional)

Directions

1. Mix together the cookie crumbs, coconut, crushed granola, graham cracker crumbs, sugar and cinnamon.
2. Place evenly on a plate.
3. Scoop out Ice Cream to the size of tennis balls and roll in the cookie mixture, pressing firmly.
4. Place on a cookie sheet.
5. Repeat until all crumb topping is used.
6. Freeze balls to HARD.
7. Prepare optional toppings.
8. In a deep pot or fryer heat oil to 400 degrees, and deep enough to cover the balls-allow for the oil to foam up at first.
9. If your making tortilla bowls do them now.
10. Drain.
11. Fry balls two at a time for no longer than 15 seconds-just enough time to make a hard"candy" type coating thats golden.
12. Place in tortilla bowl, suround with whipped cream and top with what ever you wish.
13. I like grated chocolate or sprinkles, nuts and hot fudge.
