How to Make Funfetti Magic Shell
Be sure to see the recipe card below for full ingredients & instructions!
- Combine the chocolate and coconut oil.
- Heat the mixture.
- Stir in the sprinkles.
- Cool.
- Pour on top of ice cream, and enjoy!
Magic shell topping is a “magical” melted chocolate sauce that hardens when it touches something cold, quickly forming a delicious shell. This funfetti version is made with white chocolate and sprinkles!
For best results, use a chopped bar of solid white chocolate. Chocolate chips have stabilizers which can prevent them from melting smoothly, but they’ll work in a pinch. Avoid using candy melts.
For best results, use coconut oil because it solidifies quickly to help form the hard shell. It gives this shell coating a wonderful texture.
Use any kind of colorful sprinkles (jimmies). Avoid using nonpareils as they can bleed their color into the magic shell topping.
Serving Suggestions
There’s only one thing to serve this magic shell with, and that’s ice cream!
- If you’re looking for a homemade masterpiece, you’ve gotta try my favorite Red Velvet Ice Cream.
- If store-bought is what works better for you, vanilla is always a great pairing with funfetti!
Go ahead, add a few extra sprinkles. It’s your magical ice cream shell, make it as colorful as you dare!
How to Store Funfetti Magic Shell
Pour any leftover liquid chocolate shell topping into an airtight, microwave-safe container and refrigerate for up to 3 months. To reheat, melt in 10-second intervals, stirring often, until the chocolate mixture is pourable.
Double Batch of Funfetti Magic Shell
To make a double batch of funfetti magic shell topping, simply double the ingredients and follow the recipe as written.
Magic Shell Variations
Instead of chopped white chocolate, use your favorite kind of pure chocolate for this topping – milk, dark, or bittersweet chocolate are all wonderful choices. Note that if using a darker colored chocolate, the sprinkles won’t stand out as much.
This easy to make funfetti magic shell is adorably sprinkled and perfectly sweet. Watch it harden on top of a scoop of your favorite ice cream and enjoy biting into the sweet, colorful shell! It’s perfect for birthday parties, or just for enjoying at home with the kids.
