Chocolate Dipped Ice Cream Tacos
This recipe is the jumping-off point for chocolate dipped ice cream tacos. Add whatever other favorite ingredients and ice cream flavors you like. To serve at a party, I put each one in a twist top plastic bag and then twist tie them and store in the freezer or cooler until serving.

Optional:
- For cannoli-inspired tacos:

Fill 1 box taco shells with 1 quart softened vanilla ice cream, and if making the cannoli recipe, add 1 cup mini chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon cinnamon.
Freeze until hard, about 2 hours.
Melt 1 cup chocolate chips in the microwave, then stir in 6 Tablespoons chopped butter and 1 ½ Tablespoons corn syrup.
Dip the tacos in 1 cup mini chocolate, sprinkle with chopped peanuts and let harden, about 2 minutes.
Place individual tacos into open-top plastic bags and then close with twist ties or colorful ribbon until serving.
