Best Kitchen Utensils for Making Homemade Magic Shell
Glass Measuring Cup for the chocolate chips
Small Glass Jar or Small Glass Cup with lid. These are the two I recommend, since they can be heated with no issues and have lids.
Directions how to make homemade magic shell recipe
Measure out 1 cup of dark chocolate chips and 3 tablespoons of coconut oil in a small glass bowl or mason jar. Microwave on high for about 30 seconds to melt the chocolate.
Stir with a silicone spatula to melt the chocolate with the coconut oil, if not completely melted place in microwave for an additional 30 seconds. Microwaves vary, so it may take a little more time. The chocolate was melted in 1 minute in my microwave. Just use a little patience.
No Guilt Fit Frozen Dessert
First thing when making this homemade magic shell recipe, grab some Artcic Zero and place it on the counter. See this thawing video for more information. Let it set out for about 15 minutes to reach its optimum creamy texture. If you just can’t wait that long, place in the microwave for about 30 secs to thaw just a little. Once the frozen dessert has reached optimum creaminess, scoop a few scoops into a bowl and pour the homemade magic shell over Arctic Zero for a guilt free frozen treat.
I have been trying to lose weight and it is hard to cut out all sweets. Since I have found Arctic Zero, I an indulge in eating frozen treats with my family again. Arctic Zero is low in sugar and sweetened with monk fruit. The new chunky pints are only 300 calories per the entire pint and only 75 calories per half cup serving size. There is no guilt eating this special treat. This low calorie fit ice cream is found at Target® and many nation wide stores. Find a store near you.

This looks delicious. I will definitely be trying this the next time we have ice cream!
I used to love magic shell when I was younger!
Will definitely be checking this out! Do you know how many carbs per serving (if you haven’t eaten them all up yet?) 😉 Pinned and stumbled the recipe – too fun!
Great question Debra. They all differ in carbs per serving. These treats range from 7 grams to 11 grams depending on the flavor.
This looks so fun. I use to love magic shell. I think that my grand kids would love it so I’m going to make them some. Thank you for sharing at Sugar and Spice Link Party.
This turned out great! I cut a half gallon of icecream into bar sized pieces, inserted a popsicle stick, and coated it with this topping (we made milk chocolate and butterscotch). The grandkids loved it. I used chocolate chip cookie dough icecream and salted caramel icecream. It was delicious!
I am so excited you liked it!
