Vegan Chocolate Ice Cream Shell
3min read
Ice cream’s best friend. This easy, quick two ingredient vegan chocolate shell hardens up as soon as it hits ice cream, but stays soft enough to easily crack open and break apart.
You can use any favourite bar of chocolate here - whether that’s dark chocolate or a plant based milk/white chocolate bar. The only thing that you want to make sure of when shopping for the recipe is to look for refined coconut oil rather than virgin coconut oil - which has a neutral undetectable smell and flavour - unless you’re after a coconut flavoured shell.
