    The only thing better than ice cream is ice cream with a delightfully crunchy Magic Shell drizzled over it! There’s just nothing quite like the satisfaction of cracking through that crispy coating and tasting the chocolate as it melts on your tongue. Our take on the nostalgic ice cream topping adds a light touch of cannabis that is sure to keep the (ice cream) party going.

    A variety of products form THC to CBD as well as in plant and flower form.

    A note about dosing:

    Be mindful of your dosage when using THC or CBD.

    A standard dose of THC in an edible is 5-10 mg, so calculate accordingly. Click here for information about dosing and potency.

    Start with a low dose and wait at least an hour before slowly consuming more, as the effects of ingested cannabis can take longer to kick in and can affect people differently.

    Ingredients Needed for Your THC-Infused Ice Cream Topping

    Here's what you'll need to create your own THC-infused Magic Shell:

    • Coconut oil
    • THC-infused coconut oil

    Remember, the quality of ingredients plays a big role in the final taste and consistency of your ice cream topping.

    Two Ways To Make Your Own THC-Infused Magic Shell

    1. In the microwave: Add the coconut oils and chocolate to a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high for about a minute, until the chocolate melts. Stir and let it sit for a bit to allow for the chips to melt completely. If needed, continue to heat in 20-second intervals until you get a nice, silky, smooth mixture.
    2. Stovetop: Heat 2 cups of water in a small pot. Once simmering, cover with a mixing bowl and add the oils and chocolate. Once the chocolate has melted, stir to create a silky mixture.

    The warm magic shell will be slightly runny but will firm up as it cools, and harden when drizzled over anything from the freezer. It will keep in the fridge for about a week, but let’s not kid ourselves: This won’t last a week!

    Please ensure you use THC responsibly and measure accurately to prevent consuming too much.

    How to Enjoy Your Homemade THC-Infused Ice Cream Topping

    The best way to enjoy your Magic Shell is right when you make it, but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. When ready to use, a quick trip to the microwave will bring it back to a pourable consistency.

    Remember, consuming THC responsibly is key. Enjoy your ice cream, savor the experience, and make sure to share it with friends!

    Creating your own THC-infused Magic Shell ice cream topping is a fun, creative, and delicious adventure. It's a surefire way to make your ice cream experience even more delightful. So go ahead, give this recipe a try and see how it adds a unique spin to your dessert time!
