Ingredients
- 1 cup dark chocolate chopped
- ¼ cup coconut oil
Instructions
- Place your chocolate and coconut oil into a small microwave-safe bowl.
- Heat in thirty-second intervals, mixing each time until all the chocolate is melted.
- Pour over ice cream and allow the chocolate to set.
Notes
Storage:
- To Store: Store your magic shell in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a month. You may have to reheat it as needed for use.
- To Reheat: To reheat, place the magic shell in the microwave for 20-30 seconds until it has thinned back out.
- You can easily cut this recipe in half to make less or even double it.
- Melt the mixture in short intervals. Melting and stirring the chocolate and oil in 30 second bursts helps the chocolate melt evenly and prevents it from burning.
- Let your mixture cool slightly before using it. If you put it straight onto ice cream while still warm, it might melt the ice cream.
