CUPCAKE CONES

You found this great recipe to make cupcakes inside Ice Cream Cones. You decide to make them up the night before your child’s birthday to take into school/daycare.

For successful cupcake cones this is step is VERY important! Take all of the ice cream cones out of the package and inspect them carefully! If there are ANY and I mean ANY breaks or missing pieces from the tops of the cones, do not use them.

When you place the cake batter in the cone, it will find that little crack/break and it will spill out all over your oven. In my batch of 24 cones, only 1 turned out perfectly and it was the only cone that did not have any cracks or chips on the top.

If you are not lucky enough to have a cupcake cone pan, I used a miniature muffin pan. The cup sizes were just small enough to hold the cone in place while transferring in and out of the oven.

i was wondering, if i do not have enough muffin pans or any at all for that matter, could i just bake them close together on a cake pan either glass or metal? thank you in advance..

You could use a cake pan, I would use metal as first choice, glass for second. Open the oven and place the pan in the oven, then place your filled cones in the pan. You may have to let bake a few minutes longer due to heat loss from this process, but you will avert a disaster if your cones shift while carrying in a pan....
