CHOCOLATE SHELL ICE-CREAM TOPPING

Here is a chocolate ice cream topping that has a texture nearly identical to that of the commercial product Magic Shell (which also contains coconut oil), but with a far richer, more fudgy flavor.

  • Melt the chocolate in a small metal bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Stir in the coconut oil and heat until dissolved, about 1 minute. Keep the liquid lukewarm until ready to pour over the ice cream. Chocolate will harden into a shell within a few seconds when spooned over ice cream.

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.

CHOCOLATE SHELL ICE CREAM TOPPING

I made up this sauce for a cake, but then found out how magical the leftovers were on ice-cream! Forget those expensive tiny bottles of chocolate shell (that always separate) at the grocery store... this tastes better & is so easy to do. Want to serve something memorable & indulgent? Just buy some ice-cream, and turn it into...

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 c semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 c coconut oil
1 tsp frontier co-op orange flavor (optional, but delicious!)
1/2 tsp almond extract (optional, but delicious!)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional, but delicious!)

Steps:

  • 1. Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil. This can be done over a double boiler, or in a microwave, in 20 second intervals, stirring well after each time. (The more melty it gets, the more careful you want to be about not microwaving it too long. Maybe do even shorter intervals at the end. You do not want to overheat the chocolate.)
  • 2. Stir in orange flavor and extracts. If the chocolate seizes (hardens/gets grainy because of any water in your extracts), add some additional melted coconut oil, until the sauce liquifies again. It seized once on me, but has not seized again after I switched to a different vanilla extract. It was simple enough to fix with melted coconut oil, the one time it seized.
  • 3. Drizzle this sauce on anything (great on cake & other desserts, too!) But when drizzled over a scoop of ice-cream, it forms a delicious hard shell, that crunches, then melts in your mouth. I like to put a couple layers of ice-cream drizzled with the sauce, inside my ice-cream cone, before putting my scoops on top. The combination in the picture is rocky-road ice-cream with the sauce drizzled over & hardened on top, and then a scoop of mint chocolate chip ice-cream. The flavors are delicious together! The orange, almond & vanilla extracts keep this sauce from being boring, but it still goes so well with everything. Frontier Co-op's orange (& lemon) oil based flavors are top quality and delicious in so many things. I suggest giving them a try!
