Ingredients

• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 1 can Sweetened condensed milk
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 8 ounces Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
• 1 cup Mixed nuts (chopped)
• 8 pieces Popsicle sticks

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and sweetened condensed milk until well combined.

Step 2

Sift the cocoa powder into the mixture and add the vanilla extract, ensuring there are no lumps.

Step 3

Continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended.

Step 4

Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a small space at the top for expansion.

Step 5

Insert popsicle sticks into each mold, ensuring they are centered.

Step 6

Freeze the ice cream bars for at least 6 hours or until completely firm.

Step 7

Once the ice cream bars are frozen, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl, microwaving in 30-second intervals and stirring in between until smooth.

Step 8

Allow the melted chocolate to cool slightly so it thickens slightly but is still liquid.

Step 9

Unmold the ice cream bars by running the mold under warm water for a few seconds if necessary.

Step 10

Dip each ice cream bar into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated.

Step 11

Immediately sprinkle the chopped nuts onto the chocolate coating before it sets.

Step 12

Place the coated bars on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 13

Return the bars to the freezer for an additional 10 minutes to set the chocolate coating.

Step 14

Enjoy your delicious homemade chocolate ice cream bars!
