Description
Chocolate Magic Shell is a quick and delightful topping that hardens instantly when poured over cold desserts like ice cream. Made with just two ingredients, it delivers a satisfying crunch and rich chocolate flavor that elevates any sweet treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil (refined or unrefined)
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil.
- Microwave in 20-30 second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth.
- Let it cool slightly before using.
- Pour over ice cream or frozen treats and watch it harden into a crunchy shell within seconds.
- Store any leftover magic shell in an airtight container at room temperature. Reheat gently if it solidifies.
Notes
- Use refined coconut oil for a neutral flavor, or unrefined for a hint of coconut.
- This works great with white or milk chocolate too—adjust sweetness as needed.
- Make it fancy by adding a pinch of sea salt, cinnamon, or a few drops of peppermint extract.
