Ingredients

  • 1 pint Vanilla ice cream
  • 2 cups Crispy rice cereal
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 1 cup White chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon Coconut oil
  • 0.25 cup Sprinkles (optional)

Directions

Step 1

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.

Step 2

2. Using a small scoop or spoon, form the ice cream into roughly 1.5-inch balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

3. Freeze the ice cream balls for at least 30 minutes or until firm.

Step 4

4. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the crispy rice cereal and stir until the cereal is evenly coated and lightly toasted, about 2-3 minutes. Transfer the cereal to a shallow bowl and let it cool.

Step 5

5. Roll each frozen ice cream ball in the toasted cereal, pressing gently to coat evenly. Return the coated balls to the baking sheet and freeze for another 15 minutes.

Step 6

6. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted.

Step 7

7. Using two forks or a skewer, dip each ice cream ball into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it's evenly coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.

Step 8

8. Optionally, sprinkle decorations such as sprinkles over the balls while the chocolate is still wet.

Step 9

9. Place the coated ice cream balls back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for another 15 minutes or until the chocolate is set.

Step 10

10. Serve immediately or store the ice cream balls in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week.
