Description
Creamy homemade ice cream bars coated in a crisp chocolate shell, topped with chopped nuts and an extra chocolate drizzle for a decadent frozen treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
- 8 wooden popsicle sticks
- 12 oz semisweet or dark chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp coconut oil (for smooth melting)
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (almonds, peanuts, or hazelnuts)
- 1/4 cup white or milk chocolate chips (for drizzle)
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop or mold ice cream into bar shapes and insert wooden sticks.
- Freeze for 1–2 hours, or until completely firm.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt semisweet chocolate and coconut oil in 20–30 second intervals until smooth.
- Dip each ice cream bar into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off quickly.
- Immediately sprinkle chopped nuts over the dipped bars.
- Melt the drizzle chocolate separately and drizzle over the bars using a spoon or piping bag.
- Place bars back on the sheet and freeze for 20–30 minutes to set.
Notes
- Work quickly when dipping to prevent melting—keep bars in the freezer until the moment of coating.
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best snap and flavor.
- Bars can be stored individually wrapped for up to 1 month.
