Ingredients
12 oz. white, milk, or bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1/4 to 1/3 cup coconut oil
Ice cream
Preparation
In a small saucepan, add the chocolate and coconut oil. (Use 1/4 cup coconut oil for white and milk chocolate or 1/3 cup coconut oil for bittersweet chocolate.) Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until melted and smooth, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Let cool for about 5 minutes. Drizzle over ice cream. (Or dip ice cream cones in the mixture.) Let stand until the chocolate hardens, 30 to 60 seconds.
