What do your favorite cereal and ice cream have in common? You can combine them to make an easy and delicious treat that takes your dessert game to another level. While we’re not saying this is a breakfast item (although, who are we to tell you what to do?), this recipe uses a classic breakfast favorite as one of its main ingredients. With just three ingredients and a few simple steps, you can enjoy a little slice (or ball rather) of ice cream heaven in this delicious cereal ice cream ball recipe.
Gather these materials:
- Perry’s Strawberry ice cream
- Your favorite fruity cereal (we used Fruity Pebbles in this recipe)
- Strawberry syrup
How to make this recipe:
Step 1: Getting started.
To kick things off, you’ll need a tray and wax paper to place your cereal ice cream balls on. This will prevent them from sticking to the tray later on. Then grab your handy dandy ice cream scooper and get to work!
Step 2: Preparing your cereal ice cream balls.
You’ll start with whatever Perry’s ice cream flavor you enjoy indulging in. For this recipe, we used our Strawberry flavor. Begin scooping and shaping the ice cream into balls about 2 inches in diameter. Then, you’ll want to quickly roll them in your favorite fruity cereal until well coated to ensure they don’t melt!
Step 3: Freeze, top, and enjoy!
Place your tasty treats on the tray you prepared previously and freeze until firm. This ensures your cereal ice cream balls maintain their shape and prevents you from ending up with ice cream cereal soup (although that does sound delicious, too, now that we’ve thought about it). Once you’ve allowed them to freeze, add a little extra goodness to your ice cream cereal balls by topping them with strawberry syrup for an ooey, gooey garnish, and thank us later!
Keep them in your freezer for a little dose of sweetness on the go, or bring them to your next family party for a sweet treat your loved ones can enjoy with you!
