Homemade "Magic Shell"

Total Time: 15 seconds

Ingredients:

• 1 tsp Nutella or other hazelnut spread
• 1/2 tsp coconut oil
• your favorite brand of ice cream

Steps:

1. Just mix the Nutella hazelnut spread into the coconut oil at a 2 to 1 ratio. I use 1 teaspoon hazelnut to 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil for one serving.

 
2. Spoon on top of a bowl of ice cream. I like to spread it out thinly all over the top of the ice cream. That's it! It will start freezing up to form a delicious shell coating within a minute or two.
3. So yummy and the coconut oil makes it a healthier alternative.

Nutella is expensive where I live so I just gently heat 200 g (7 oz) of milk chocolate (not baking chocolate) in a glass jar in the microwave until almost melted, add 3 Tablespoons of coconut oil and stir until smooth. Pour some over ice cream and wait a few seconds before eating to allow shell to harden.

I've been looking for the recipe -- the one using milk chocolate by a reviewer. Thanks!
