1. Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 liter (33 oz) ice cream (any flavor).
• Crushed cereal, such as corn flakes, frosted flakes, cinnamon squares, or puffed rice (it is also possible to use finely crushed sweet hard cookies/crackers or plain breadcrumbs).
• Flour (a small bowl of it, approx 1/2 cup).
• Oil (use an unflavoured oil that has a high heat point).
• 2 eggs (beaten in a bowl large enough for dipping).
• Cinnamon and/or sugar (optional).

1. Prepare two baking sheets by lining with a silicon liner or parchment paper. Then place the sheets in the freezer for half an hour prior to making the ice cream balls.

2. Scoop symmetrical balls of ice cream. Try to make each scoop about as large as your fist. Make as many scoops as will fit on the baking sheets.
5. Coat the ice cream. Remove the balls from the freezer, then:

• Roll each ice cream ball first in the flour bowl. A little flour over each ball provides increased strength.
• Roll each ice cream ball in the beaten egg.
• Lastly, roll each ball around in the crushed cereal. (For a tastier treat, you can add cinnamon and sugar to the crushed cereal. Just make sure you still have enough cereal bits on the ice cream to coat the surface of the scoop.)
• Alternatively, you may dip the ice cream balls in cake batter to make a thin, donut-like coating. Then either fry the balls directly or sprinkle / roll them in crushed cookie or biscuit crumbs to give a crisp shell. This method can be done immediately before frying, or like the method above may be re-frozen as follows.

6. Place the ice cream balls back on the baking sheets, then back in the freezer.Freeze for at least two hours before frying. At this point, you can actually keep the ice cream balls frozen for up to two months if needed.
7. Fry the coated ice cream balls. Heat up the oil until it shimmers - approx 185C or 364F. Fry the ice cream balls in batches two at a time to avoid reducing the temperature of the oil. A low temperature won't fry them crisply. Fry until each ball turns a light/golden brown all over. Remove as soon as it's done.

8. Serve the ice cream balls. Serve immediately after frying, with chocolate or caramel sauce or other favorite sauce. If you'd like the dessert to be colder, place it back into the freezer for a few more minutes after it's fried, then pull out and serve a little colder. This is a personal preference and isn't essential.

Hosting contests or organizing a give away is one of the best strategies that you can use to drive traffic into your website/ blog. This is an age old idea that is used by almost all the webmasters around the web. But hosting a contest or a give away can be a tedious job to a few at least. Finding out a sponsor or a gift to be given is the only tough job behind the scene. The prizes need not be really expensive to drive attention, gifting an ear phone or a domain name can also be equally competent. Today we will give you a few ideas that can be used to host a contest without much your pocket money being drained.

Finding out a sponsor.

1. Find Out a Third Party Sponsor
Finding out a sponsor for your give away should be the first step in organizing a contest. Sponsors can be of different types depending upon your site's popularity and traffic. If your blog belongs to newbie category, it is always preferable to approach some software firms or cloud storage sites. These firms do not need any capital to give away their products such as a software license or a premium cloud storage account, and therefore there are higher chances of these groups cooperating with you. An antivirus, internet security or any other popularly used software can be offered as a prize, and these software are indeed a benefit to the winners.
If you have a site that has comparatively higher amount of traffic and popularity, then try to find out materialistic prizes such as gadgets or accessories, as these gifts can obviously drive higher attention, but you need to prove yourself to the sponsor that you are worth the sponsorship.

2. Sponsor Yourself
If you are a very beginner and you website is really new, it is hard to find sponsors for your contests. That does not mean that you cannot host a contest. Sponsor it yourself. Keep aside some of your pocket money for this. It doesn't matter how small the prize is, it is just the give away that matters. Drive maximum traffic with the efforts you make. Bring up your site. Establish your presence. And later on, you will have sponsors waiting for you.
