Ingredients

  • 2 bars semi-sweet chocolate, chopped, 4 ounce each bar
  • 2 Tablespoons coconut oil
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a small microwave safe bowl, add chopped chocolate, coconut oil, and kosher salt. Heat in 15 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth (should take less than 2 minutes).
  2. Allow magic shell to rest in bowl until luke warm (not hot, but warm to touch). This will take about 30 minutes.
  3. Spoon magic shell topping over ice cream and watch it magically harden in seconds!

Notes

  • When using coconut oil, be sure to choose the coconut oil that is in a solid state (not the liquid that may float on top).
  • Store magic shell in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave to enjoy it again. Be sure to let it get lukewarm again. If it's too hot it will melt the ice cream.
  • Stove top instructions: Heat ingredients in a double boiler (bowl or double boiler over a pot of simmering water). Stir until smooth and allow to rest as instructed about.
