Ice Cream Base

4 1/4 cup (1 liters) Chocolate ice cream4 1/4 cup (1 liters) Vanilla ice cream

Chocolate Shell

7.05 oz (200 grams) Dark chocolate2 tablespoons Coconut oil

Garnish

3 1/2 oz (100 grams) Chopped nuts (hazelnuts or almonds)2 tablespoons Cocoa powder

Method

Ice Cream Preparation

Scoop Ice Cream

Using a scoop, take equal portions of chocolate and vanilla ice cream. Form into balls and place them on a parchment-lined tray.

Freeze Ice Cream Balls

Once shaped, place the tray in the freezer and let the ice cream balls freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.

Chocolate Shell Preparation

Melt Chocolate

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine dark chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.

Cool Chocolate

Allow melted chocolate to cool slightly, but do not let it harden.

Assembly

Coat Ice Cream Balls

Remove the ice cream balls from the freezer. Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.

Add Nuts and Cocoa

Immediately roll the chocolate-coated ice cream balls in chopped nuts and dust with cocoa powder before the chocolate hardens.

Final Freeze

Place the coated ice cream balls back on the parchment-lined tray and freeze again for at least 1 hour to allow the chocolate shell to harden.
