Step 1 – Make the Ice Cream

Whip the heavy cream in a large bowl until stiff peaks form.

In a separate bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract.

Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture until smooth.

Pour the mixture into silicone popsicle molds, insert wooden sticks, and freeze for 6–8 hours or until solid.

Step 2 – Prepare the Chocolate Coating

Melt chocolate and coconut oil together in a heatproof bowl over simmering water (double boiler) or in the microwave in 30-second bursts.

Stir until smooth and glossy. Let it cool slightly but not harden.

Step 3 – Dip the Ice Cream Bars

Remove frozen ice cream bars from molds.

Dip each bar into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off.

Quickly sprinkle chopped almonds on top before the chocolate hardens.

Place bars on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 10 minutes to set.
