Ingredients
¼
cup
heavy cream
1 ½
ounces
bittersweet chocolate
chopped
½
cup
sweetened coconut flakes
1
quart
high-quality vanilla ice cream
softened
4.8
ounces
Almond Joy bars
8 mini bars, chopped
Instructions
Heat cream in a small saucepan set over medium heat, stirring frequently. Remove from heat when hot, but not boiling.
Place chopped chocolate in a medium bowl. Pour hot cream over chocolate and whisk until a smooth chocolate sauce forms. Set aside to cool.
In a medium frying pan set over medium heat, toast coconut until light golden brown, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Place softened ice cream in a large bowl. Stir in coconut flakes and Almond Joy pieces.
Drizzle in 2 tablespoons chocolate sauce and stir in slightly. Do not stir in all the way or it will turn the ice cream brown.
Transfer ice cream to a freezer-safe container. Cover and place in freezer until ice cream re-freezes, at least 4 hours. Serve.
