¹⁄₂ cup corn flakes or 1/2 cup cookie crumbs, crushed
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons sugar
1 egg

Scoop out 4 or 5 balls of ice cream. Return to freezer.
Mix crumbs, cinnamon and sugar.
Roll frozen ice cream balls in half the crumb mixture and freeze again.
Beat egg and dip coated balls in egg, then roll again in remaining crumbs.
Freeze until ready to use (for thicker coating repeat dipping in egg and rolling in crumbs).
When ready to serve, heat oil to 350 degrees.
Place a frozen ice cream ball in fryer basket or on a perforated spoon and lower into hot oil 1 minute.
Immediately remove and place on dessert compote.
Drizzle with honey and top with a dab of whipped cream.
Continue to fry balls one at a time.
Balls will be crunchy on the outside and just beginning to melt on the inside.
