Chicken fried ice cream has really taken over TikTok lately. It is literally turning into a social media craze!
In addition, chicken fried ice cream is cold ice cream shaped into a chicken leg, it almost looks like my buttermilk fried chicken. It reminds me of my Grandma’s homemade ice cream recipe. With this recipe, you use chocolate for the insides of the chicken. You can use things like Kit Kat bars or Twix bars to get that maximum sweet flavor for the chocolate. You can also order this online, but I have created the recipe for a fraction of the price. These little cuties remind me of chicken tenders. The only thing you would need for this recipe is vanilla ice cream, crushed cornflakes, Twix bars, a cutting board, and plenty of great ice cream options if you plan on making a wide variety.
