Howdy, Loves!
Hope everyone is staying cool, and enjoying the sunnier days this summer!
It’s been very hot and humid, but TODAY, with no weather expectations,
mother nature looks like RAIN, and WE love it!
“mostly cause, we get to bake’.
CONED CUPCAKES
This year, we decided to conserve a bit and have AC on one floor, instead of
exploring the “billing” system, with cooling all three of our floors! Yup, the new
house features, three layers, instead of our traditional ‘one’ we where
accustomed to, and YEA, it’s been tasking! I’ll share more in a
fun ‘new house digs’ post sometime soon! For now,
lets BAKE while the weather permits!!
I know most people have already tried this, but I felt REALLY silly enjoying photo’s, and
reading up on the various fun idea’s to explore with “baked goodies in cones’! ..
I felt SO blonde (I hate that term, as blondes DO have more fun!, I just
dyed my hair! whomp!).. How did I miss out on this aspect of life for
SO long?!? Anyway, its a home trend starting now that’s here to stay!
For those of you feeling like I was not knowing
about this, here’s my journey to “baking cupcakes,
the coned way’ i’m loving!
How To
1. Make the batter for the cupcakes.
Use a cake mix or your favorite scratch cake recipe.
Prepare the batter as per directions.
{For more of a fun mixture, use funfetti!}
2. Unwrap the ice cream cones slowly, being careful to not damage
them as you remove plastic coverings. Place each empty
cone in a muffin tin, one per ungreased muffin cup.
(you can space out if you’d like to avoid clashing while baking!)
3. Pick up and fill each cone. Replace each cone in its muffin cup.
Leave a little room at the top for expansion (about 1/2 to 3/4 inch).
Do not overfill the ice cream cones with batter. Fill right to the first
line inside cone – the portion a lil below the rim. Aim for cupcakes
which do not overflow the cones. These will be more
attractive and will be easier to frost.
Bake according to cake batter instructions.
Bake for the same length of time you would bake regular cupcakes.
Prepare frosting / sprinkles while baking is in session.
Allow to cool after cupcakes are ready before frosting.
Frost as decoratively as you like! We simply mixed up some color’s, and went
crazy with our sprinkles of choice! The kids REALLy enjoyed
the simple idea of cupcakes in cones!
We added ice cream to a few, and enjoyed our
new FAV summer treats! Yummmmm!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING IN TODAY!>
Hope you come again, and also get to try out this fun recipe!
****HAPPY SUMMER***
