How to Make Magnum-Style Ice Candy
The ingredients are just as simple as all-purpose cream, evaporated as well as condensed milk, and dark chocolate chunks. Having these ingredients, you might want to start mixing the cream and the two types of milk together in a big bowl. Then, simply chill it while you make the chocolate coating.
Melt the dark chocolate chunks into a syrup and carefully transfer it into a squeeze bottle. I prefer having my syrup more than usual so that I can enjoy a satisfying thicker crunchy coating later!
With the squeeze bottle of melted chocolate and chilled milk mixture, the only left to do is to arrange it into the ice candy plastic.
