Ingredients

6 unbaked canned biscuits
all purpose flour, for dusting
6 cups canola oil (1.4 g), for frying
chocolate syrup, for serving
whipped cream, for serving
sprinkles, for serving
How to Make It
1. Step
Line a baking sheet with wax paper.
2. Step
Use a 1-tablespoon scoop to portion 12 ice cream balls onto the prepared baking sheet. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
3. Step
Cut the biscuits in half, then roll out each half on a lightly floured surface into a thin round.
4. Step
Working quickly, add a frozen ice cream ball to the center of each dough round. Wrap the dough around the ice cream to seal tightly. Set on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough and ice cream.
5. Step
Freeze the biscuit balls for 1–2 hours, until firm.
6. Step
Heat the canola oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 325°F (160°C).
7. Step
Working 4 at a time, add the biscuit balls to the hot oil and cook until golden brown and crunchy, 2–3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain.
8. Step
Transfer the fried balls to the freezer for another hour, until firm.
9. Step
To serve, arrange the fried ice cream balls on a plate and top with chocolate syrup, whipped cream, and sprinkles.
