Hi, Kathy– you can use vegetable shortening instead. A 1:1 sub. Enjoy!

I would love to make this but our son is allergic to anything coconut. Are there any other oil choices? Thank you!

Hi, Joan– I like to use Ghirardelli or Baker’s chocolate when I make it. Enjoy!

Can you recommend a brand of chocolate? We love dark chocolate. I don’t mind paying more for quality chocolate.
Thank you.

It’s so easy…and it’s probably one of my favorite things to add to ice cream!!!

Hi, Eileen– unfortunately, no, I can’t. Coconut oil is what hardens the shell, and no other oil is going to work like that.
