Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes

I just found this recipe while looking for more ice cream recipes - I used to make these over 20 years ago for Michael's school birthdays - good memories! I don't know when I'll make them again but they were something a little different for pre schoolers and not as messy to eat ...

Or anytime you need to tote a lot of cupcakes somewhere

From the Brown-Eyed Baker


INGREDIENTS:

1 box yellow (or whatever flavor) cake mix or your own recipe
24 "cake" ice cream cones
Vanilla frosting or chocolate frosting (or whatever)
Sprinkles, chopped nuts (or whatever)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place a cone in each well of two standard muffin tins. ( I just placed them on a baking sheet)

2. Prepare the cake batter according to the directions on the box. Fill each ice cream cone with 3 tablespoons of batter. (I didn't measure, just don't overfill)

3. Bake for 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.

4. Once cool, frost and decorate as desired.
