Jen Hood's Fried Ice Cream

Ingredients:

Vanilla Ice Cream
Kellogg's Frosted Flakes
Baker's Shredded Coconut
Eggs
Oil
Toppings (Whipped Cream, Chocolate, Carmel, Nuts, etc.)

Make your ice cream balls and freeze them for several hours.

Take the cereal bag out of the box but don't open the bag. Carefully pound the living daylights out of it with a rolling pin. Just be careful to not break the bag or you will have a huge mess. Once the cereal is crumbled, mix it in a bowl with the bag of coconut and set aside.

When the ice cream balls are hard dip them in the beaten egg and roll in the coating mixture. Make the balls one at a time and place on a foil lined cookie sheet to go back into the freezer.

Freeze the balls for another 2-3 hrs and repeat the coating process.

For best results, frees overnight. Heat oil in a "Fry Daddy". Cook until golden brown on both sides( approx. 30 seconds each side.)

Serve with Toppings or plain, tastes good ether way.

note: Do not use olive oil and do not fry in a frying pan. Enjoy!!!

Easy Spinich Artichoke Dip

Here is an easy dip I came up with when I was at a friend house watching some football and feeling the need for some dip. It is super easy to make and tastes just like it came from a restaurant.

1 14 oz can artichoke hearts drained
1 10 oz box frozen chopped spinach
1 8oz Pkg cream cheese
2 c Italian mix shredded cheese (1 pkg) - you can substitute mozzarella or add monetary jack if you want a bit of a kick
1 c shredded Parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 c mayo
1/2 c diced tomato -Optional


Optional:
You can sprinkle some fresh tomatoes on it prior to serving for color if you are interested.

Just mix together. and stick bowl in microwave to heat for 30 sec mix and 30 sec and mix again. This helps everything blend better. Once mixed put in casserole dish and stick in oven and broil until the top is slightly brown.

Enjoy
