Equipment
- double boiler (or stainless steel bowl and a pot large enough to set it in)
- fork
- ice cream scoop
- airtight storage container
Ingredients
- ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Create a double boiler by placing a stainless steel bowl or small pot inside a pan of simmering water. Put the chocolate chips and coconut oil in the bowl (or small pot) and stir with a fork until the coconut oil is mixed in.
- Continue stirring every 20-30 seconds until the chocolate and coconut oil are fully melted. Remove the pan from heat and lift the bowl/small pot out of the pan and set it aside to cool a little.
- Scoop ice cream into bowls. When the ice cream is ready, drizzle the magic shell over the ice cream. If you have any left over, you can store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one year.
