Homemade Magic Shell on top of homemade ice cream is the perfect summertime combination. Do you think?

Perfectly rich and creamy, crunch and delicious, homemade magic shell is one of my favorite things to keep on hand when I know Little Buddy is having friends over for an afternoon to play.

Oh, goodness.

Who am I kidding?

There is a jar of this stuff ready at just about any time throughout the summer in my kitchen regardless if friends are coming over or not! It is just too perfect not to drizzle on top of a bowl of ice cream or an ice cream cone for that extra special little treat.

    OK so confession: I never really liked magic shell – eek! I know! BUT that was until I figured out that we could make it at home and then I fell in love! This looks soooooo delicious 😉
