I used to have a copy cat type recipe to make Chi Chi's "fried" ice cream. The fried is in quotes because they don't actually fry it.
I don't know exactly how anymore, but you take vanilla ice cream frozen as cold as you can get and form it into a ball with your hands. You roll the ball in crushed corn flakes mixed with sugar & cinnamon. Top it with chocolate, strawberry, & caramel.
Oh, and you also take a tortilla and fry it in a skillet until it's crisp and then sprinkle it with cinnamon sugar mix, but we always skipped that part.
It tasted just like the stuff you got at Chi Chi's!
