Make your own Magic Shell

Ok, this is kind of crafting...

Do you love Magic Shell, but think it is some weird scientific chemical reaction that can only be made in a factory. Well....I stumbled across this on the internet (but of course). This is how you make Magic Shell at home, and you can make any flavor, and experiment with adding different extracts and flavorings.
90 grams coconut oil
135 grams of chocolate

I found the coconut oil at my local grocery store in the organic foods section and I used just plain semi sweet chocolate chips

I have a food scale so I weighed the ingredients. I would guess its about 1/4 cup of oil and 1 cup of chocolate chips, but this is just a guess from sight. Just melt the 2 ingredients together in a pan on low, and you are done. This recipe makes 8 ounces, a perfect amount for a gift portion. Do not refrigerate, and shake before serving. It really is so good, and I can imagine some really good flavors - or using the white chocolate chips or the butterscotch chips too.

Bizarre huh?

  1. Wow... who would've known? That stuff can be expensive in the stores for such a little bottle. Probably healthier too when you make it yourself... no fillers.

    Thanks! :)
