I recently found this and I'm going to try it soon. I could see this on a pie.
How to make Hard Shell Ice Cream Topping
1 1/4 Cups Chocolate Chips
1/2 Cup Coconut Oil (measured when solid)
Directions
Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in the microwave about 1 minute (depending on your microwave). Allow to sit a few minutes to allow the heat of the oil to melt the chocolate chips and then stir until smooth. It will be runny.
Pour topping into a glass bottle. A recycled salad dressing or sauce bottle works great. A glass bottle is best since the topping will be heated in the microwave. Store in the refrigerator. To serve, heat bottle in microwave (open cap) for 30 seconds until liquid. Slightly shake and continue heating at 15 second intervals if not liquid after the first 30 seconds. Pour over your favorite ice cream and in a few seconds you will see magic!
Notes:
You can substitute butter for the coconut oil, however the coconut oil gives the more ‘real’ flavor of the store bought topping.
You can use milk chocolate chips, but everyone we served preferred the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
This homemade magic shell is great to keep on hand for a last minute dessert for unexpected guests.
Neither of the ingredients say they must be refrigerated’, but I keep any leftovers in the refrigerator just to be safe. When it is stored in the refrigerator it will take longer to heat so keep leftovers in a glass bottle not plastic.

I could see putting the hard-shell topping on the pie before refrigerating.
