Ingredients
- 1 can evaporated milk (chilled)

- 1 pack all-purpose cream (chilled)
- 4 to 5 bars of chocolate (a mix of milk and dark chocolate is ideal)
- Crushed almonds (optional, for added texture and flavor)

Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Ice Cream Base
- Pre-chill your main ingredients: evaporated milk, condensed milk, and all-purpose cream. This step is essential for achieving a smooth and creamy consistency.
- Pour the chilled evaporated milk, condensed milk, and all-purpose cream into a blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is light and well-combined.
- For an extra crunch, stir in crushed almonds. Set the mixture aside.
Step 2: Create the Chocolate Coating
- Using a double boiler, melt 4 to 5 bars of chocolate. A combination of milk and dark chocolate works best to mimic the signature Magnum flavor. Stir until the chocolate is smooth and glossy.
- Transfer the melted chocolate to a pastry bag or squeeze bottle for easy application.
Step 3: Assemble the Ice Cream Treats
- Take ice candy plastic bags (commonly used for frozen treats). Pour a small portion of the melted chocolate into each bag, enough to coat the inner walls. Swirl the bag gently to ensure the chocolate is evenly distributed.
- Use a funnel to pour the prepared ice cream mixture into the chocolate-coated bags. Fill the bags almost to the top, leaving enough space to twist and seal.
- Twist the open end of the bag tightly downward and tie it securely to seal the contents.
Step 4: Freeze and Enjoy
- Lay the filled bags flat on a tray to ensure the ice cream sets evenly. Place them in the freezer and let them chill overnight.
- Once frozen, your homemade Magnum-inspired ice cream is ready to serve. Tear open a bag, and indulge in the rich, creamy ice cream with a satisfying chocolate crunch!
- Enjoy your homemade Magnum ice cream and savor every bite of this dreamy treat!
