I found a recipe for cupcakes in a cone on the back of our ice cream cone box. I had hoped to make a fun treat for my kids, but these adorable cupcakes ended up causing some serious anxieties. Little did I know we would be eating cupcakes off the floor! These were just a big mess!

Subject: How NOT To make Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes
We make a totally differnet kind of ice cream cupcakes and we LOVE THEM. We use the silicon cupcake molds and paint them with melted chocolate. fill with a little sliver of cake or a cookie, some hot fudge or caramel and a scoop of icecream. Top it with cool whip and sprinkles. YUMMY! You can make them a couple days in advance and what a great thing for a party!
YAY! I’m not the only one that’s failed hard on these stupid things. >.<

Try making a sheet cake with funfetti cake make, then cutting them into small squares and put 2-3 squares into the ice cream cone and fill with frosting?

THe trick is you fill the cone 2/3 way full, then put them each filled side into a cupcake liner lined cupcake pan. Don’t ask but it does work for me.
I have made these for years and have never had a problem. Use a cupcake pan to hold your ice cream cones and only fill them about 2/3 of the way up. do not frost until ready to serve. the cones also get soft if you make them too far in advance.
