Tempura Fried Ice Cream

Instructions

• Scoop out 6 balls of ice cream onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, and freeze for at least an hour, or until firm.
• Slice pound cake into 1-2 inch (2 ½-5 cm) slices.
• Lay three slices of pound cake on plastic wrap side by side and flatten with a rolling pin.
• Wrap frozen ice cream ball in pound cake so it’s fully enclosed. Freeze for at least an hour, or until firm.
• Make tempura batter by mixing flour, egg, and water a little at a time.
• Heat oil to 400˚F (200˚C).
• Coat the wrapped ice cream in tempura batter.
• Carefully lower the coated ice cream into the oil and cook until golden brown, 15-30 seconds. Don’t cook for too long or else the ice cream will melt.
• Remove excess oil by patting with a paper towel.
• Serve immediately with your toppings of choice.
