Homemade Ice Cream Cones Food

HOMEMADE ICE CREAM CONES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400° F (350° F if you're using a dark-coated baking sheet). In a medium-size bowl, beat the sugar and egg whites with an electric mixer for 30 seconds.
• Mix in the flour until smooth, then add the vanilla extract and melted butter. For each cone, scoop 2 1/2 tablespoons of batter onto the baking sheet, spreading the batter into thin 6-inch circles (use a measuring spoon for accuracy).
• Bake for 7 or 8 minutes or until golden, then remove the sheet from the oven. Working quickly, form each cookie into a cone (a parent's job), pinching the tip to seal it tightly. Allow the cones to cool seam side down on a rack.
• Tip: If a cookie begins to cool and is difficult to shape, return it to the oven briefly to soften it.
• No-drip Tip: The next time you serve ice cream in cones, place a mini marshmallow in the tip of each cone before scooping on the ice cream. The added treats will help prevent melted ice cream from leaking out the bottoms of the cones.

ICE CREAM CONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Melt the butter and cool it.
• In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites, sugar and vanilla. Stir in the salt and half of the flour, then mix in the melted butter. Beat in the rest of the flour until smooth.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use the back of a big spoon to spread 2 level tablespoons of the batter into a circle 6 inches across. Try to get the circles as even and smooth as possible. Cook's Note: You're likely to get 2 rounds on one standard baking sheet.
• Put the baking sheet in the oven, and begin checking the cones after about 10 minutes. Depending on your oven, they'll take between 10 and 15 minutes to bake. The circles should be golden brown throughout (some lighter and darker spots are inevitable so don't worry). Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Use a thin metal spatula to loosen the edge of one disk. Slide the spatula under the disk, quickly flip it over, and immediately roll it around a cone form
• Press the seam firmly on the counter to close the cone and pinch the point at the bottom securely closed. Let the cone cool slightly on the mold until it feels firm, then slide it off and stand it upright in a tall glass to cool. Roll the other cones the same way. Repeat, using the remaining batter.
• Place in cone holder of some sort to cool. Glasses work well.
• Serve up with one or two scoops of your favorite ice cream.

ICE CREAM SUNDAE CONES

Steps:

• Place a stainless steel bowl in the freezer to chill, about 20 minutes. Set 6 tall glasses on a baking sheet and put a cone in each. Drop a malted milk ball into each cone.
• Roughly chop the remaining malted milk balls and put in the cold bowl with the peanut-butter-cup pieces and ice cream. Use a metal spoon to smash and stir the candies into the ice cream, working quickly to keep it from melting.
• Press 1 small scoop of the candy ice cream into each cone. Dot with a heaping teaspoon of fudge sauce and top with 2 generous scoops of the candy ice cream. Freeze the cones (in the glasses) until firm, about 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, melt the semisweet and milk chocolate with the butter and corn syrup in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water), stirring until smooth. Remove the bowl from the saucepan and let sit until the chocolate is cool but still pourable, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the cones from the glasses and dip the ice cream into the chocolate, swirling to coat. Immediately sprinkle the peanuts over the chocolate; place the cones upright in the glasses and freeze until the chocolate shell is set, at least 1 hour or overnight.

HOMEMADE VANILLA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Whisk the cream, milk, sugar, vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Beat the egg yolks in a medium bowl. Slowly whisk 1 cup of the hot cream mixture into the beaten yolks, then pour back into the saucepan, whisking, and return to medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture thickens, coats the spoon and reaches 180 degrees F on a thermometer, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl or measuring cup; discard the solids. Stir often until the mixture cools to room temperature. Lightly press plastic wrap directly against the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming. Chill until cold, about 3 hours. (For faster chilling, set the bowl of custard in a bowl of ice water and stir until cold.)
• Freeze the mixture in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions. (Take care not to over-churn the ice cream or it can have a grainy texture.) Place the ice cream in the freezer to set up for at least 1 hour. Serve.

HOMEMADE ICE CREAM CONES

Steps:

• Whisk together the eggs and sugar in a large bowl until frothy. Whisk in the butter, milk and vanilla. Gradually whisk in the flour and salt until smooth. The batter should be thin; you can stir in more milk if needed.
• Heat a small skillet or griddle over medium heat. Brush the pan lightly with oil. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet and turn to spread out the batter into a thin circle. When the underside is golden brown, flip over and cook until golden on the other side. Remove from the pan and form into a cone while it's hot, squeezing the end to seal. Place on a wire rack to cool and harden completely. Repeat with the remaining batter.

ICE CREAM CONES

Steps:

• Combine the egg whites and confectioners' sugar in a small bowl. Mix with a fork to avoid incorporating air, then slowly add the melted butter, then the honey. Add the flour and stir until smooth. Place the bowl in the refrigerator for 1 hour, then use right away. (If storing for later use, make sure you let the batter come to room temperature for 1 hour before use.)
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and line a half-sheet baking pan with a silicone baking mat.
• Spread 2 tablespoons of batter on the silicone liner using the back of a spatula to make a perfect 5-inch circle. Repeat to make a second circle.
• Bake the ice cream cones until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Using an offset spatula, immediately but gently lift the batter off the pan and roll into a cone, overlapping the edges and pressing the edges firmly to seal. (If you need to adjust the cones after they have cooled, place them back in the oven for 20 seconds and they will become soft and pliable again. Transfer to a rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Repeat with the remaining batter.

HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE-DIPPED ICE CREAM CONES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, microwave chocolate and vegetable oil for about 1 minute. Stir every 20 seconds until smooth.
• Place ice cream cones on a small lined baking sheet. (Make sure you have cleared space in your freezer for the sheet.). Drizzle about 1 teaspoon melted chocolate into the bottom of each ice cream cone. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes, to set chocolate.
• Remove vanilla ice cream from freezer to let thaw a few minutes before filling cones. Scoop ice cream into cones. Place filled cones into short glasses and onto baking sheet. Freeze for 10 minutes to set ice cream.
• One at a time, dip tops of cones in melted chocolate mixture (you may need to warm in your microwave for 15-20 more seconds to thin slightly).
• Immediately roll into chopped nuts. If necessary, sprinkle nuts over top to coat evenly.
• Place the cones back into the short glasses, onto the baking sheet, and into your freezer.
• Repeat process until all sugar cones are filled, dipped and sprinkled with nuts.
• Enjoy!

NUTTER BUTTER ICE CREAM CONES

Steps:

• Lay a sheet of wax paper on the counter top.
• Vanilla Ice Cream: Put 2 oz. white candy melts to a small dish. At 50% power, microwave the candy melts for about a minute. Stir, then microwave in 15-20 second internals. Do not overcook. If you do, add a bit of vegetable shortening and stir.
• Dip top half of Nutter Butter cookies into the melted candy, then lay on wax paper. Sprinkle with multi-color non-pareils and top with an M&M.
• Strawberry Ice Cream: Add red/pink food coloring to white candy melts. Repeat dipping/decorating process used above.
• Chocolate Ice Cream: Put peanut butter chips and semisweet chocolate chips in a small dish. Use just enough semisweet chocolate to get a nice chocolate ice cream color. Microwave at 50% power for 45 seconds, continue in 15-20 second intervals until melted. I like adding a little bit of shortening. Repeat dipping/decorating process used above.
• Allow to harden and enjoy.

ICE CREAM CONE CAKES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Sit the cones in a muffin tin to hold them upright.
• Put the butter, flour, custard powder, vanilla, sugar and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Beat together with an electric whisk until smooth. If you have nimblefingered little helpers, hand round pairs of teaspoons and set them to work filling the cones. If you're making them yourself, spoon the cake batter into a food bag or disposable piping bag, snip off the end to give you a wide hole, then pipe into the cones, filling them ¾ full - this will enable you to get the batter right to the bottom.
• Bake the cone cakes, still in the muffin tin, for 30 mins until a skewer poked into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Leave to cool.
• To decorate the cakes, beat the butter until smooth, then add the icing sugar and vanilla, and beat again until well mixed. Put into a piping bag fitted with a big star nozzle, then pipe icing on top of each cake as you would a cupcake. Decorate with sprinkles, cherries, drizzles of sauce - whatever you like.

HOMEMADE SUGAR CONES

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar. Beat in flour and butter just until blended.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Draw two 7-in. circles on paper. Drop 3 tablespoons of batter in the center of each circle; spread batter to edges. Bake at 400° for 6-8 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
• Place cookies, bottom side up, on a paper towel-lined work surface. To shape cone, begin with one edge and roll cookie a third of the way toward the center; roll a third of the opposite side over the rolled portion. Shape top of cone. Place seam side down on a wire rack to cool completely.
• Return second cookie to oven for 1-2 minutes if necessary before rolling. Repeat with remaining batter to make four more cones.

CHURRO ICE CREAM CONES

Steps:

• In order to mold the cones, you will need a sheet of white paper cut into fourths, staples and aluminum foil.
• In a bowl, stir flour, sugar, salt, dry yeast.
• In another bowl, stir warm milk and yolk. Add to the flour mixture. Then knead until smooth. Add melted butter and continue until its smooth and elastic. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth. Let it stand in a warm area until the dough doubles in size [approx. 1-2 hours].
• Divide the dough into 4 pieces. Roll them into 16-inch-long strands about 1/2" to 1" thick. Cover them loosely and let it stand in a warm area for approximately 15minutes.
• Pre-heat oven to 350°F.
• Mix sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
• Using a quarter sheet of paper create a cone shape. Staple it [do not use tape as it will melt in the oven]. Then wrap aluminum foil to reinforce the cone mold.
• Wrap the doughnut roll around the cone mold.
• Brush with egg white and sprinkle or roll the cone in the sugar-cinnamon mixture.
• Bake for 15 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let it cool down. Scoop your favorite ice cream into the cone. Drizzle chocolate syrup on top.

ITALIAN ICE CREAM CONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F In a medium bowl, beat the sugar into the egg until it is thickened and pale yellow. Beat in the butter, vanilla, and milk. Gently stir in the flour.
• Grease a nonstick cookie sheet and spread 1 1/2 tablespoon of the batter into a 6 inch circle using a thin, flexible spatula. Dipping the spatula in water first make this job easier. The batter will spread about 1/2 inch while baking, so keep the circles about 1 inch apart. Fit as many circles as you can on 1 cookie sheet.
• Bake for 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove the cookie sheet from the oven and use a large metal spatula to remove 1 cookie from the sheet. Handling it carefully so as not to burn your hands, immediately wrap the hot, pliable cookie around a cone shaped mold, sealing the point. (*** HINT HERE*** - in case you don't want to go out and buy the cones these can be made into bowl cones simply by picking 4 bowls all the same shape and size, and place the hot cookie over the bottoms of the bowls. The cookies will fall around the sides of the bowls.) Repeat with the remaining cookies. The cookies will harden as they cool, so work as quickly as possible. Let the cookie sheet cool and repeat the process with the remaining batter. Remove the cones from from the molds when completely cool.
