The classic frozen treat topping is so easy to make at home

Add this recipe to your dessert repertoire! Chocolate shell is the perfect addition to a variety of frozen treats and it’s so easy to make on your own. Start by combining bittersweet chocolate, corn syrup, and refined coconut oil over the stove. Heat in a double boiler until thoroughly mixed. Pour into a liquid measuring cup then let cool completely. Now it’s ready for dipping! For a healthy treat, try coating frozen banana chunks with the chocolate, using toothpicks to guide the dipping. For a crunchy addition, pour nuts into a small bowl. Roll the banana inside the bowl; the nuts should adhere to the chocolate. If you’re craving a more decadent dessert, dip an ice cream cone into the chocolate, and then layer with your favorite crunchy toppings. Ice cream cookies are another tasty way to enjoy this recipe—just use a ladle spoon to coat the cookie with chocolate. No matter what you choose to dip in it, the chocolate shell hardens instantly, giving you flavor sans mess. This DIY chocolate shell is easy to make and healthier than the store-bought version.
