Fried Ice Cream Cheesecake
This Fried Ice Cream Cheesecake isn’t fried at all but you will enjoy it every bit as much as your favorite Mexican restaurant dessert. Creamy cheesecake, cinnamon crunch cereal, and whipped cream make up the base- don’t forget the cherry on top! Recipe from Glorious Layered Desserts by Glory Albin.
Fried Ice Cream Cheesecake Recipe
I have a GLORIOUS new cookbook to tell you about today! My friend Glory has written her first cookbook called Glorious Layered Desserts and it is every bit as fabulous as you might imagine. You may know Glory from her popular blog Glorious Treats. The first half of the book is filled with detailed instructions for her deliciously creative layered desserts, and the second half contains her essential recipes such as crusts, crumbles, fillings, sauces, toppings, and more. The way that this book is written makes it easy to mix and match any layered dessert that you desire!
She has graciously allowed me to share her Fried Ice Cream Cheesecake recipe with you. Every bite of this mini dessert is delicious. Enjoy!
