  • Transfer the melted chocolate to a glass.
  • Very quickly and in small batches, dip each ice cream bar into the melted chocolate.
  • If using toppings, after dipping it into the chocolate roll it in the toppings.
  • Place a piece of parchment paper on a cutting board and get them back in the freezer.

Notes

  • Grab the tips from the protein ice cream recipe for best results. Know that it calls for vanilla stevia and sprinkles. Omit this and just use a vanilla extract. You don’t need the added sweetness as you’ll be coating them in chocolate.
  • The homemade ice cream bars really have to be frozen. Keep them in the freezer for a solid eight hours or you’ll have a drippy mess.
  • When you’re dipping the bars, you need to move quickly. They will start to melt but also, the chocolate topping will start to freeze. You may have to reheat the chocolate (over low heat!) or use a spatula to spread the remaining.
  • If you want toppings on the bars, have a plate beside the chocolate so that as soon as the chocolate drips of,f you press them into the toppings.
