Ice Cream **MAGIC**

The Davis Herd frequently indulges in ice cream. Preferably vanilla topped off with a few more calories, goodies.    I've listed a few of our favorite toppings below.     

Hershey's Syrup

Sprinkles

Peanut Butter

Honey

Crushed Cookies

Dry Cereal

and Magic Shell.

We may use them alone... but often have a combination of atleast two.

Oh how we love ice cream! 

I'm blogging to inform you of a recipe for homemade Magic Shell.  And if you  your kiddos enjoy the hard shell magic it's more than worth it to concoct your own!  

First, hunt down a jar of Coconut Oil. 

Now, this isn't available at my small town grocery store so I had to put this on my "big town" grocery list.  I found it in the Organic section of the grocery store, it was a bit pricey, but I reminded myself of some of the crazy money we spend on other things and decided to go with it. 

 Also, I was surprised to see Coconut "Oil" is a solid.
 It looks like Crisco in a glass bottle. 
I just thought you should no that so you're not confused...or you think it's bad or something.

Anyhoo....

Next, grab a bag of Nestle Semi-Sweet chocolate chips.  For melting purposes I decided not to buy the generic brand this time. 

Head home....You're ready!

In a glass mixing bowl place 1 1/4 cups chocolate chips and 1/2 cup Coconut Oil (measured when solid).  Place in microwave for 1 minute(depending on your microwave).  When the oil has completely liquefied, stir.  The oil will melt your chocolate chips.  Stir until smooth. It will be runny!

Poor into a glass bottle/jar(I used a honey jar) as you will reheat in microwave as need.

 

In our case....nightly.  

Store in refrigerator.

HIS.....nearly half-a-gallon topped with homemade hard shell *magic*!

HERS.....the little dab left in the corner of the container!

MEANIE!!!!!!!!!!
