Name of Recipe: Ice Magic TM style
Number of People: Depends how much you like on your icecream
Ingredients:
100g dark choc (I used dark cooking choc as it was all I had but I would choose 70% in the future)
50g milk choc ( I used green and blacks milk choc)
5 tspn/20g cold pressed organic virgin coconut oil
1/4 tsp peppermint essence or to taste
Preparation:
Break up chocolate place in *: and mill on spd 8 for 10-15 sec
Add coconut oil and set TM to 2min 37deg spd1 after 1 min scrape down, add peppermint essence and continue for the remaining min at spd2. This was all I needed to melt and combine but melt for longer if needed.
Pour into a squeezy bottle (I used a BPA free Decor brand bottle i bought at BigW) and serve drizzled over EDC vanilla icecream.
STORE IN THE PANTRY - not the fridge!!
Recipe based on Thomas Keller's topping recipe
For plain Ice Magic leave out the peppermint essence. My BIL suggested a mocha one using instant coffe (will try that one next time) The other options for flavours would be to use different essences/flavoured chocolates (alcoholic ones for the adults ;) )
Let me know if you try it out ;D I take absolutely no responsibility for the amount of icecream it makes you consume either lol
Tips/Hints:
The mixture does (like store bought Ice Magic from what I can remember of it) go firm in the colder weather so just sit the squeeze bottle in some warm water to make it sqeezeable again :D 8)

Chelsea - I made a batch of this earlier in the week. It was lovely when first made but wouldn't turn back to the liquid state again after being put in the fridge. I ran it under warm water the next day for 5 minutes and it was still a very solid block in the squeezy container so I couldn't use it. The day after that I sat it in a jug of warm water for 30 minutes before I needed it and it still wouldn't melt. In the end I got frustrated and put it in the microwave for 15 seconds and of course burnt the chocolate. I followed the recipe exactly and am not sure why it didn't work. Perhaps more coconut oil?
Meagan - Sorry Chelsea I leave mine in the pantry not the fridge. I have added that to the recipe, but maybe it does need more coconut oil. I will look at mine now. Ok yep bottle was quite firm from the pantry, put in in a tall jug filled with slightly cooled kettle water and it remelted, took a while but we used to have to do that years ago when we ate ice magic DH reminded me ( pre children and TM lol )
MJ - Copha is coconut oil with added lecithin, so you could use it. I'd use 1/2 ricebran or grapeseed oil and 1/2 coconut instead perhaps.
Nikkit - it was too yummy and that batch is all gone and we'll have to make more. Thank goodness we ran out of ice cream!
Definitely a keeper.
Lilli33 - We use to put ice magic in the microwave for 10 secs or so if it was firm from the pantry. That should be doable here too. I think I might have to try this this week...
faffa - Meagan!!! I have been resisting this recipe knowing what my lot are like, finally gave in after some more badgering ... IT IS FANTASTIC ,well done.
dragongirly - Hi Meagan - this recipe is made of awesome! Have indulged myself with ice magic tonight - fantastic. Thank you for sharing the recipe.
Tasty - I just wanted to know is it ok to double this recipe and how about if i used all of a 200g block of cooking choc (200g) instead of just 150g. Will it still work?
Meagan - I would put a bit more oil in to compensate for the extra chocolate.
-
I also thought you could do a white choc version too. It does have a coconut flavour but I quite like that ;D
-
we should have a like button ;D
-
Brilliant Meagan. Well done! I can't wait to try it. ;D
-
Congratulations Meagan. I think we should rename this Meagan's Ice Magic.
-
8) Thanks Cookie but it is based on Thomas Kellers basic idea. Meagan's Ice Magic does have a nice ring to it though lol
-
Yum!!!!!
Image a Jaffa flavoured one! (orange zest)
I could make this right now but what's the point? The kids have finished the ice cream.
-
This will be popular with the children Meagan, well done.
-

Sorry you hadtrouble with it Chelsea.
-
is there anything else you can use other than coconut oil?
-
I am sure you could use a neutral oil like grape seed or rice bran. Coconut oil is good for you though, so given the choice I would go for coconut oil ;)
-
do you think copha would work (is it coconut oil or something like that?) I just have no idea where to buy coconut oil and have never heard of it?
-
Mel, here (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=2428.0) is a thread about coconut oil - your answers may be in there.
-
Mel most health food shops sell it :)
-
Copha is coconut oil with added lecithin, so you could use it. I'd use 1/2 ricebran or grapeseed oil and 1/2 coconut instead perhaps.
-
Hi mel81q. If I remember correctly, you are in the Sydney Hills district. Coconut oil is available at the health food shop at Castle Towers. I bought some there to try this out, but the next thing I make in the thermie is going to be the BHG lemon, ginger honey drink (sniff).

Sorry you hadtrouble with it Chelsea.
Thanks Meagan. I will try it again soon as the boys loved it when first made. :)
-
thanks everyone - knew i would get the answer here! Going to the towers this week so will grab some then - gotta love a bit of ice magic ontop of home made icecream (yummo)
-
Meagan, I'm having a few 'like/dislike' thoughts about you right now! ;)
We made this tonight and ... "it was epic" (15 year old daughter) "mmmmmm" (husband) "mfgrbmfp" (10 year old daughter - only because she was almost licking her bowl out and couldn't really say anything!) and I agreed with all of them!
But we dislike you (in the nicest possible way!) because it was too yummy and that batch is all gone and we'll have to make more. Thank goodness we ran out of ice cream!
Definitely a keeper.
Thankyou for sharing. :D
-
I made some of this today to go with the tenina's salted caramel icecream i made the other day. Yum!

-
I think I have some coconut oil in the cupboard un used (can't remember why I brought it now) anyway I think I should try this.
-
Mandi you REALLY should :D .... bribe your kids to do the dishes with it lol
-
Lol. Good idea Faffa. 😃
