Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl, ensuring they are evenly mixed before heating.
- Microwave and Stir: Microwave the mixture on half power for 1 minute, then stir well. Continue microwaving in short intervals while stirring until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Cool the Mixture: Allow the melted chocolate and coconut oil mixture to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes or until it is no longer warm and reaches room temperature.
- Apply to Dessert: Pour the cooled chocolate mixture over your dessert of choice, such as ice cream, to create a crisp, hard shell.
Notes
- Use half power in the microwave to prevent burning the chocolate.
- Stirring frequently during melting ensures a smooth and even texture.
- The mixture must be at room temperature to properly harden on cold desserts.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature and reheat gently before use.
- For a different flavor, try using dark or milk chocolate chips.
