While it may have taken you a while to read on how to make fried ice cream, the actual time to prepare the dish barely takes 15 minutes and an extra 5 minutes to deep-fry. Admitted, you must wait long before you get to enjoy fried ice cream, because of the refrigeration time involved. While the ice cream sits in the freezer, you can pack hot meals in a Vaya Tyffyn, run a few errands, and get back to frying the ice cream balls. Once done, you can have hot meals and finish off with fried ice cream for dessert!
