Last week, I wanted to be a “fun Mom” who sent something “different” in for the end of season Lacrosse party. I had completely forgotten about ice cream cone cakes!! I fell in love with these all over again!
Ingredients
Cake mix – any flavor {We like Funfetti}
Flat bottom ice cream cones {Joy sells colored cones}
2 tubs of whipped frosting – any color/flavor
Sprinkles or other decorations
Directions
Prepare cake batter as directed. While Betty Crocker recommends pouring the batter into cupcake papers and then placing cones upside down on top of the batter, I prefer filling the actual cone – not all the way to the top or the batter will spill over (I learned that the hard way!). Then, your finished cone will look like this (instead of half empty): 
Bake at 350 for 18-22 minutes.
Transporting the cone cakes is quite an adventure. I decided on the egg carton, but here are a few other ideas as well:
I LOVE the next two photos and I plan on using cups the next time (but filling candy a little higher for my security!):
This is something I’ve never seen before and I love new and different ideas! It wouldn’t have occurred to me to cook the cake inside the cone. I bet this is a huge hit with the kids … Especially if it comes in another cup with Smarties/M&Ms in it 🙂
