With a sundae that looks this good…you might just need to keep this gift for yourself! My mom sent me a recipe (you might say she is my ultimate everyday food storage fanatic 😉 ) where you can make your OWN Magic Shell…you know that really delicious chocolate sauce that hardens on your ice cream. Except this is better…it’s like a mix between hot fudge and magic shell and takes only minutes to make. And of course….it uses food storage; powdered milk to be exact.  And you really can’t get much better than that.  For a gift I fill a frosting canister 3/4 the way full (about one recipe’s worth) and use my really cute Magic Fudge Sauce label.  And, as always, because I love you all so much I’m sharing it with all of you!  So if you want to download the label to print on your own computer, click HERE.  (The recipe is below the packaged product picture)

Magic Fudge Sauce

1 Cup (6 ounces) Semisweet Chocolate Chips
1/4 Cup Butter, cubed
3 Tbs. Evaporated Milk (1 Tbs. Dry Powdered Milk + 3 Tbs. Water)

Vanilla Ice Cream
1/2 Cup Sliced Almonds (opt.)

In a heavy saucepan, combine chocolate chips, butter and milk. Cook and stir over low heat until chips are melted and mixture is smooth. Serve warm over ice Cream (Sauce will harden.) Sprinkle with almonds. Refrigerate any leftovers. Sauce can be reheated in the microwave. Yield: about 1 Cup.

  9. Man I could have used this recipe when I made a chocolate jelly roll…I did something similar, but it wasn’t that great. Next time I know, butter is key. Thanks for the recipe!

  11. Crystal, thank you SOOO much! You saved my tuckis this morning with this idea! I TOTALLY forgot about getting teacher presents ready and then realized today was the last day of school before the holidays – UGG! I was able to whip up 4 batches of this and put them in some little jars I bought over the summer. I wrapped them up with your label and they looked awesome. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

  21. My ice cream-addicted hubby and I just enjoyed your magic shell and the verdict is….out of this world good! And the stuff really does harden on your ice cream! I made my husband wait (quite impatiently) until the sauce had hardened. It was soooo exciting. I love your blog and can’t wait to hear you present at Classic Books and Gifts in Lehi!

    Thanks for the recipe!
