Magic Shell

INGREDIENTS
1-1/4 cups chocolate chips
1/2 cup coconut oil (measured while solid)

Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in the microwave about 1 minutes. Allow to sit a few minutes to allow the heat of the oil to melt the chocolate chips and then stir until smooth. It will be runny.

Pour into a bottle. I used a 2-pint Mason jar. A glass bottle works well especially since it will be heated in the microwave. Store in the refrigerator. To serve, heat bottle in microwave (without lid) for 30 seconds until liquid. Slightly shake and continue heating at 15 second intervals if not liquid after the first 30 seconds. Pour over your favorite ice cream and in a few seconds you will see magic!

Notes:
  • You can substitute butter for the coconut oil, however the coconut oil gives the more ‘real’ Magic Shell flavor.
  • You can use milk chocolate chips, but everyone we served preferred the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
