   • Combine sugar and cinnamon in a shallow pan.
   • Let the vanilla ice cream soften slightly for about 5 minutes.
   • Shape the ice cream into 6 balls and roll each ball in the sugar-cinnamon mixture until they are well-coated, ensuring the coating is pressed firmly onto the ice cream.
   • Wrap each coated ice cream ball individually in aluminum foil.
   • Place the wrapped ice cream balls in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 5 hours, or until they are frozen hard.

2. Frying:

   • Heat oil in a deep frying pan or pot to 450°F (232°C).
   • Once the oil is hot, carefully unwrap each frozen ice cream ball.
   • Fry each ice cream ball in the hot oil very briefly, for about 2 seconds only. Be sure to fry them one at a time and handle them gently to prevent them from melting too quickly.

3. Serving:

   • Once fried, quickly transfer each fried ice cream ball to a dessert dish.
   • Decorate each serving with your favorite toppings such as chocolate sauce, caramel sauce, whipped cream, sprinkles, and a cherry on top.
   • Serve immediately while the ice cream is still crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside.

Tips:

• Frozen Ice Cream Balls: Ensure that the ice cream balls are frozen hard before frying to prevent them from melting too quickly in the hot oil.
• Quick Frying: Fry the ice cream balls very briefly, for only about 2 seconds, to achieve a crispy outer shell while keeping the ice cream inside frozen.
• Toppings: Get creative with your toppings! Try crushed nuts, chocolate chips, or even a drizzle of honey for extra flavor and texture.
