Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk or spatula
  • Microwave or double boiler
  • Squeeze bottle
  • Small funnel
  • Ice candy plastic bags
  • Ice candy sticks or ties
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients
  

For the Milk Filling

  • 1 can all-purpose cream 370 ml
  • 1 can evaporated milk 410 ml
  • 1 can condensed milk 300 ml

For the Chocolate Coating

  • ½ cup dark chocolate or approximately 200 g such as Sevona or any preferred brand

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the milk mixture: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose cream, evaporated milk, and condensed milk. Mix well until smooth and thoroughly combined. Chill in the refrigerator.
  • Melt the chocolate: Melt the dark chocolate using a microwave or double-boiler method. If using a microwave, heat in short intervals and stir between each interval until smooth.
  • Prepare the chocolate coating: Allow the melted chocolate to cool slightly, then transfer it into a squeeze bottle.
  • Coat the plastic: Insert the squeeze bottle tip into the bottom of an ice candy plastic bag. Squeeze in about 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate, or adjust according to your preferred thickness.
  • Spread the chocolate: Lay the chocolate-filled plastic flat on a clean surface. Using an ice candy stick, gently spread the chocolate evenly inside the plastic to create the coating.
  • Add the milk filling: Insert a small funnel into the opening of the plastic. Pour in the chilled milk mixture, leaving enough space at the top for sealing.
  • Seal: Remove the funnel, twist the opening, and tie securely. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • Freeze: Place the prepared ice candies in the freezer and freeze overnight, or until completely firm.
  • Serve: Enjoy the homemade Magnum-style ice candy straight from the freezer.

Notes

  • Use good-quality chocolate that melts smoothly for an even coating.
  • Let the melted chocolate cool slightly before putting it into the ice candy plastic.
  • For a thicker chocolate shell, add more melted chocolate before spreading.
  • If you do not have a squeeze bottle, use a small funnel to add the melted chocolate.
  • Microwave wattages vary, so melt chocolate in short intervals to prevent burning.
  • Keep the prepared ice candies frozen until ready to serve.
  • The recipe yields will depend on the size of the ice candy plastics used.
