Time 35m

Yield About 3/4 cup of chocolate shell topping

Number Of Ingredients 3

6 ounces semisweet, white or milk chocolate, chopped
1/4 cup refined coconut oil
Pinch of fine sea salt

Combine the chocolate, coconut oil and sea salt in a medium heatproof bowl and set over the pan (do not let the bowl touch the water). Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is well combined, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove the bowl from the pan and let the mixture cool at least 15 minutes before pouring on top of ice cream (or you can dip your ice cream in the mixture instead).

The "magic" is coconut oil. Virgin coconut oil will make this taste like a Bounty Bar, yum! Or use refined coconut oil, which has less flavor. Recipe is easily doubled.

Tips for Making Magic Shell Chocolate Ice Cream Topping:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The type of chocolate you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your magic shell. Use a chocolate that you enjoy eating on its own, such as a dark chocolate or a semisweet chocolate.
  • Don't overheat the chocolate: If you overheat the chocolate, it will seize up and become grainy. Heat the chocolate slowly and stirring constantly, until it is smooth and melted.
  • Use a heavy saucepan: A heavy saucepan will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the chocolate from scorching.
  • Let the chocolate cool slightly before adding the oil: This will help to prevent the oil from splattering.
  • Use a spoon to drizzle the chocolate over the ice cream: This will help to create a thin, even coating.
  • Put the ice cream in the freezer for a few minutes before serving: This will help to set the magic shell and prevent it from melting too quickly.

Conclusion:

Magic shell chocolate ice cream topping is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is the perfect way to dress up a simple bowl of ice cream or to add a touch of decadence to a more elaborate dessert. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a magic shell that is sure to impress your friends and family.
