Ice Cream Turtles

Step 1

Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Use a cookie scoop to scoop individual scoops of the Halo Top onto the cookie sheet. Freeze for 2+ hours.

Step 2

Press a straw about ¾ the way through the ice cream scoops to create “wells” for the caramel sauce.

Step 3

Spoon the caramel sauce into the wells. Freeze for 2+ hours.

Step 4

In a deep, microwave-safe bowl, add the dark chocolate. Microwave at 30-second intervals, stirring between each one, until completely melted. Stir in the coconut oil and chopped pecans.

Step 5

Working quickly, dunk an ice cream scoop into the chocolate and flip over to coat completely. It helps to use two forks for easy removal!

Step 6

Quickly transfer the coated ice cream back onto the tray. Repeat this with the remaining ice cream scoops. Place back in the freezer for 2+ hours before serving. Enjoy!

*To make an adult version, replace 1 teaspoon of the caramel sauce with 1 teaspoon bourbon, whiskey, or dark rum
