Mmm you've got to try this, use gluten free chocolate chips or wonderful 75% Chocolate bar

Have you ever had the magic chocolate shell that hardens when you put it on ice cream (and also has 27 mysteriously unpronounceable ingredients)? It is so yummy and is NOT something I think of when I think of “real food.”

When I was browsing on Pinterest one day I came across a magic shell recipe made with 2 ingredients: chocolate chips and coconut oil. Yes, please! I made it for a birthday celebration using my favorite brand of real ice cream. Well, actually I didn’t use the ice cream to make it, but it served as an absolutely delicious chocolate topping for a scoop of vanilla. Whether you’re a chocoholic (like me) and you want to drown your ice cream in your homemade magic shell…Or maybe you’d just prefer a drizzling?

 Either way, it comes together in just minutes so that you can be digging into it in no time flat. It was a big hit here and couldn’t be easier to make! I’m thinking chocolate covered strawberries are next

Magic Chocolate Shell {make it yourself}

Instructions

1. You can use the stove top or the microwave to make these.
2. To heat them on the stove, fill a pan with water and sit a bowl into the water bath. Put the chips and oil into the bowl and cook over medium until melted, stirring frequently.
