The easiest dessert you’ll ever make, you are going to love this chocolate peanut butter magic shell that hardens over your favorite ice cream in seconds.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Magic Shell - The Lemon Bowl

It’s pretty clear by now that I’m an avid chocolate peanut butter fan. The truth is, I think the two taste better together than apart. But you know what takes it over the top? When you combine it into a quick and easy magic shell that instantly hardens when poured over ice cream. Winning.

Chocolate PB Magic Shell - The Lemon Bowl

If you’ve never made homemade magic shell before, your mind is about to be blown. It takes no more than 60 seconds to make and is nothing more than your chocolate of choice and coconut oil melted until smooth.

PB2 Powder

On a whim, I recently made it with PB2 and was immediately hooked. Creamy peanut butter would work well too but I’d rather save my calories for the ice cream. PB2 powder is simply peanuts that have been pressed to remove 85% of the oil. To be clear, I love natural peanut butter and eat it all the time so if you can spare the calories in your day, be my guest.

    Will this hard shell harden over popcorn or chex mix?

      It won’t harden as quickly as it would over ice cream, but it should still harden!

    This might be a dumb question, but can you keep it in the fridge and reheat it whenever you want some? Or is it something you make and eat ‘fresh’?

      I would suggest making it fresh but truthfully I’ve never tried storing it!
