Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes


A fun cupcake to make. Any cake recipe can be used but I went with a pound cake since a spillover with a thick batter was less likely.

Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Mini Pound Cake
1 cup butter,  softened
3 cups sugar
6 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup heavy cream
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup cocoa
2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips


Cherry Cream Cheese Frosting
8oz cream cheese softened
1/4 cup butter softened
3 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp cherry extract
Red food color

Beat together butter and sugar. Add in eggs, two at a time. Mix in vanilla and cocoa. Mix in flour and cream alternately, beginning and ending with flour.  Fold in chocolate chips. Spoon batter into large pastry bag or big zip lock and pipe into cones. Use muffin pans to bake cones at 325 for 30 minutes or until done. Cool. 

Mix butter and cream cheese together. Add in powdered sugar, extract, and food color. Spoon frosting into pastry bag and pipe onto cooled cupcakes.

  2. I made ice cream cone cupcakes a few years ago and they were disastrous. These ones look gorgeous... Maybe I need to try again!
