Fruity Pebbles has a way of appearing in wacky State Fair desserts, which have helped inspire this Fruity Pebbles ice cream. If you’ve ever had deep fried ice cream, it’s flash fried in hot oil to form a crispy outside while the middle stays cool and creamy.

Here we’ve used Fruity Pebbles cereal to coat the ice cream for a pop of color and flavor. It’s better than any restaurant version and is ready in minutes!

How to Make Fruity Pebbles Ice Cream

Ice an ice cream scoop or cookie scoop to form 1 1/2 inch balls. Roll them in cereal to form a thick even coating. Then place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet to freeze for at least 30 minutes until hard.

Fill a deep fryer or medium saucepan with 3 inches of oil and heat to 375°F. Remove ice cream balls from the freezer and gently lowers them 1-2 at a time into the hot oil. Fry for no more than 10 seconds and then remove to a paper-towel lined plate. Repeat for the remaining balls.
