Chocolate Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes Chocolate Frosting

Chocolate Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes with white Chocolate Frosting

I prepared this Chocolate Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes last month for my our younger ones 4th birthday celebration. His birthday comes usually when the summer vacation starts, so his teacher requested to celebrate his birthday with classmates in prior before the last day of school… I had a plan to bake cupcakes for the little ones and suddenly

changed my mind to bake it in ice cream waffle cones. So finally I baked chocolate cupcakes in ice cream waffle cones and topped them with white chocolate butter cream frosting. Kids liked them to core and the party was super hit 🙂

How to prepare Chocolate Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes

  • The waffle cones are weightless, while baking they may change position and spill the batter, so give some grip to the base to stand strong while baking.
  • I have used a method where i have rolled some dry beans in a aluminum foil and placed over the sides for each cones, leaving space in the center to place the cones.
  • The easy way is use one ice cream cone (Pic 1) to wrap all the cupcake holders. Place it in the holder and around the sides place those dry beans wrapped foil (Pic 1), Remove the cone and repeat the same procedure for all the remaining with the same cone (Pic 1).

  •  The reason to use one cone is if you keep all the waffle cones open in room temperature they may turn soggy soon.
  • Once wrapped the cupcake holders with aluminum foil, at the time of bake place all the cupcake holders with empty cones (Pic 5), you can wrap with few more foils to get extra grip to cupcakes (Pic 5 & 6) then fill it with cupcake batter (recipe follows) and bake as desired…

Yields – 22 Cones Approx

Notes

  1. Unlike regular cupcakes these waffle cones are not recommended to make in prior and store in refrigerator.
  2. The cones were crispy and icing also hold it shapes for 3-4 hours after decoration.
  3. You can make the icing 1-2 days in advance and store in refrigerator till use, bring to room temperature, whip it for a while and decorate over cupcakes as you prefer.
