It’s the last week of the Whip It Up Challenge. I’m pretty proud of myself for setting aside time for 8 new recipes in the last 8 weeks, even if some of them where simple… like this week’s – “Fried” Ice Cream.  But hey, it fit the theme for desserts!  Two simple ingredients, one of which I didn’t have! So therefore I won’t call mine Cinnamon “Fried” Ice Cream.

Was the recipe easy to follow?

Yes! Especially since it was 2 ingredients. I didn’t have cinnamon toast crunch, so I used Fiber One Caramel Delight.  I know, doesn’t even sound close, but believe me, it is sooo good. Sweet and crunchy, and better for you!

Did the dish taste good?

YES! It was very good. Although, I didn’t really get the point of broiling. I think I had the oven rack positioned wrong.  Or maybe I was just expecting it to be warmer.  But I loved the taste of the cereal with the ice cream. We drizzled it with caramel sauce, and with a bit of whipped cream.

Would you make it again?

Maybe, I’ll probably just make the lazy girl’s version, by pouring the cereal on top of a bowl of ice cream… and maybe I’ll do that later tonight!
