Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 3/4 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup Coconut oil
- 8 pieces Popsicle sticks
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract.
Whisk the mixture together until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Transfer the churned ice cream into a shallow container and smooth the top with a spatula.
Insert a popsicle stick into each section, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
Cover the container with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely firm.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil.
Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Remove the frozen ice cream bars from the freezer and unmold them carefully by running warm water over the bottom of the container if necessary.
Dip each ice cream bar into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated.
Allow the excess chocolate to drip off before placing it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Repeat with the remaining ice cream bars and then return them to the freezer for at least 20 minutes until the chocolate shell is set.
Enjoy your homemade chocolate-covered ice cream bars immediately or store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
