No Churn Corn Ice Cream Bars Last week, I introduced you to this no churn sweet corn ice cream recipe. I initially made the ice cream to top this Filipino shaved ice dessert Mais Con Yelo. Today, let’s take that same ice cream recipe and turn it into cute corn ice cream bars! This quick ice cream recipe doesn’t use fresh corn. Instead, it uses canned creamed corn. Corn used in canned goods are picked at their peak. You’ll never find a can of corn that’s isn’t ripe and sweet. Don’t be afraid to use canned fruits and vegetables. Corn ice cream is a popular flavor throughout Asia, South America, and Central America.It is slowly gaining favor throughout the United States. I’m sure you are bound to see variations of corn desserts served with berries this summer. Silicone Molds for Ice Cream Bars These ice cream bars are formed and frozen in silicone molds. Two versions of the molds are photographed above. The classic set comes with two molds, making a total of four 3.5 x 2-inch bars. It is also available in heart shape, waffle (chocostick), and swirl (tango). You will need four sets to use up all the ice cream in this recipe. This recipe makes 16 classic size bars. The mini version has four cavities in one mold. These make bars about 3 x 1.5-inches big. The silicone molds listed here are by Silikomart. I highly recommend Silikomart. I have been using their products for many years. There are several other brands available on Amazon. They may be cheaper, but the quality of products are not consistent. The silicone molds are easy to use and a breeze to clean. They’re dishwasher safe and microwave safe. The molds are very flexible. Simply peel back the mold and pop out the frozen ice cream bars to unmold. Tips for using silicone ice cream bar molds Insert the wooden stick BEFORE adding the filling. If you try to insert the stick after filling the mold, the filling will likely ooze out. Place the molds on a flat freezer safe sheet tray before filling. The flat surface will ensure the molds are evenly filled. Plus, the tray allows you to easily transport the molds to the freezer. Cover filled molds with plastic wrap before placing in the freezer. This will prevent the fillings from absorbing any unwanted freezer flavors. Don’t have silicone ice cream mold? Use the technique used in these mocha ice cream bars. You just need a rimmed quarter baking sheet tray. White Chocolate Magic Shell Homemade chocolate magic shell is quick and easy to make! It works with any kind of chocolate- white, milk, dark, semi-sweet, or ruby chocolate! You can use chocolate chips or chopped up chocolate bars. The secret to chocolate magic shell is coconut oil. Coconut oil has rather cool melting point. It turns into a liquid around 75 degrees Fahrenheit. On the other end of the spectrum, coconut oil solidifies around room temperature. The melted chocolate-coconut oil mixture quickly hardens around the cold ice cream bars (about 30 degrees Fahrenheit or cooler). As such, you have to work fast! The chocolate sets up quickly. Have your toppings ready before you start dipping the bars into chocolate. Melted chocolate mixed with coconut oil creates a silky, luscious chocolate sauce. The coconut oil solidifies and hardens when introduced to the frozen ice cream. Thus, creating that crunchy chocolate “magic shell.” Other chocolate magic shell uses Don’t want to entirely coat the ice cream bars in chocolate? Drizzle the melted chocolate mixture over the ice cream to create little bits of crunch. Or, use chocolate magic shell to create homemade Drumsticks! These coconut sundae cones are dipped in dark chocolate. Prepping the ice cream bars for magic shell The ice cream bars should be SUPER cold. Unmold the bars and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Return to the freezer for about 10 minutes to ensure it is COLD. There are several ways to way to dip the ice cream bars in chocolate: Completely coat the entire bar in melted chocolate Dip the top half of the bar Dip the bar at an angle into the chocolate mixture Drizzle the chocolate over the bars Double dip! Dip once in white chocolate, then a second time in dark chocolate Related Recipes using ice cream bar molds: Funfetti Ice Cream Bars: fun and festive confetti ice cream bars dipped in dark chocolate and garnished with an assortment of sweet toppings Raspberry Mango Coconut Pops: a little sweet, a little tart, and a little taste of the tropics White Chocolate Blueberry Ice Cream Bars: no churn vanilla ice cream swirled with maple blueberry syrup, dipped in white chocolate and topped with pistachios White Chocolate Corn Ice Cream Bars No ratings yet No churn sweet corn ice cream bars dipped in white chocolate magic shell.

There are two versions of canned cream corn. One contains salt, another version is listed as “no salt added.” If you canned creamed corn has salt in the ingredients, omit the salt listed in the recipe. Light corn syrup is optional. This helps to ensure a creamy, easy to scoop ice cream by preventing the mixture from freezing completely solid. Other options include: glucose syrup, light rum, or vodka. Equipment Notes: I used these classic size silicone molds purchased from Amazon to freeze the ice cream bars. They are sold in a pack of two molds making 4 bars per set. The recipe listed here makes 16 bars. If you don’t have silicone molds, follow the directions for these mocha ice cream bars. Freeze the ice cream mixture in a rimmed quarter sheet tray. The recipe will make 10 rectangular ice cream bars.
