Dipped Ice Cream Bars Recipes

DIPPED ICE CREAM BARS

Steps:

• 1. Press half of your favorite ice cream into each mold. Push the Popsicle stick in, then add the rest of the ice cream until each mold is full. 2. Place the mold in the freezer for 2 hours or more. 3. About 30 minutes before you get ready to dip the ice creams, make the magic shell chocolate.
• 1. Pour the chocolate and the coconut oil into a microwavable safe bowl. Microwave in increments of 30 seconds until fully melted. 2. Let cool fully before dipping the ice cream. 3. Once all ice cream bars have been dipped, place them back in the freezer for about 10 minutes. Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE-DIPPED ICE CREAM CONE

Steps:

• Make a cone holder: Find a small, sturdy, clean box that will fit in your freezer. Turn it over, and cut eight X's about 2 inches apart with a sharp knife. Open up each X with your fingers so it will securely hold an ice cream cone upright.
• Cook the chocolate, coconut oil and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula, until melted, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.
• Pour about 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate into a sugar cone, and swirl to completely coat the inside. Pour any excess chocolate back into the bowl. Place the cone in the cone holder. Repeat with the 7 remaining cones. Freeze the cones to set the chocolate, about 10 minutes.
• Fill each cone to the top with ice cream, and top with an additional 1/3-cup scoop. Return the cones to the cone holder, and freeze to harden the ice cream, about 30 minutes.
• Dip the cones: Put your desired topping in a small bowl. If the remaining chocolate starts to solidify, heat it in the microwave in 10-second increments, stirring in between, until it is fluid again. Dip each top scoop of ice cream in the chocolate to mostly cover it, leaving a little bit exposed. Let any excess chocolate drip off, then immediately dip the top scoop in the topping. Work quickly, as the chocolate shell sets in seconds.
• Serve the cones immediately, or put them in the freezer until ready to serve. To freeze individually (for up to 2 weeks), roll the cone up in a large triangle of wax paper and tape closed.

CHOCOLATE DIPPED ICE CREAM BARS

Steps:

• Scoop the softened ice cream/prepared no-churn ice cream mixture into a popsicle mold, filling up to the top. Ensure there are no gaps/air bubbles in each mold. Place the mold into the freezer for 40 minutes (set a timer!!!) and then insert a popsicle stick into each mold. Freeze the bars for 4-5 hours.
• In a microwave safe dish, melt the chocolate chips together with the coconut oil in 30 second increments, stirring until smooth and glossy. Allow the chocolate to come to room temperature.
• Remove the popsicle mold from the freezer. Run warm water over the base of the mold and then carefully extract each ice cream bar from the mold by pulling on the popsicle stick. Place the bars on a baking tray lined with wax paper** and return the tray to the freezer.
• One at a time, remove an ice cream bar from the freezer, dunk it into the chocolate up to the top of the stick, and then place the bar back into the freezer, on to the wax paper. Repeat with the remaining bars. Freeze for 1 hour before enjoying, or removing the bars from the tray and placing them in a freezer bag, sealing it tightly and storing it in the freezer for up to 2 months.
