Sometimes you feel like a nut! Sometimes you don’t!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

That’s one candy bar commercial that always rang true with me. Sometimes I did feel like a nut (literally) and other times I just wanted the creamy coconuty piece of candy without the almonds.<\/p>\n

Almond Joy and Mounds candy bars are sister bars but with a few differences; the mounds is covered in dark chocolate and the almond joy has milk chocolate with two almonds on each piece. (“Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don’t \/ Almond Joy’s got nuts ‘ Mounds don’t”. I’m merging the two candy bars into a delicious cool treat for the summer months that are ahead. I don’t think they even have commercials for candy bars any more do they? I just love being able to have a quick and easy ice cream to throw together at the last minute.<\/p>\n

I always loved both candy bars when I was younger. My only problem with the Almond Joy was there were only two almonds per piece and I would carefully eat around each almond saving the almonds for the last bite. Now with this recipe I can have the best of both. I can all add all the toasted almonds I want and I can have a dark chocolate shell instead of milk chocolate.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

*Note: This is sooooo good.  I made this a week before I actually even tasted it. I put it in the freezer and forgot about it. Today I made my chocolate shell and scooped up the ice cream and boy, am I glad I finally tasted it. I halved my chocolate shell topping and had plenty for about 4 bowls of ice cream.<\/p>\n

BLAST FROM THE PAST: Chocolate Malted Ice Cream<\/a> <\/span><\/strong>brings back that malted taste you use to get in a chocolate malt when they were made at a drug store soda fountain.<\/p>\n

How could these ingredients not turn into a terrific ice cream.<\/p>\n

The chocolate and coconut oil gets melted over a pan of simmering water. When the chocolate hits the ice cream it turns into a magic shells within seconds.<\/p>\n

Have it with your favorite Almond Joy or Mounds on the side.<\/p>\n
