Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes are super easy and fun for the little critters!  You can use just about any cake or muffin recipe.  I used a pumpkin muffin recipe because of the time of year, but I think a white or pink cupcake would seem more like a real ice cream cone!


Kate's getting pretty good with the mixer!


Fill them 3/4 full...


I use a plastic baggie to frost.  You can buy your frosting or whip some up...  The frosting recipe I use is from Allrecipes...  Here it is:
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese

1/2 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups heavy cream


Super easy to whip up!


Combine the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract and in a large mixing bowl. Begin mixing while slowly pouring in the heavy cream. Stop and scrape the bottom of the bowl a couple of times while you continue whipping until the cream can hold a stiff peak.  Several minutes—be patient; it’s worth it!


Frost and top with sprinkles or little candies-
-Katie absolutely loved making this recipe--it wasn't too challenging, and she can sprinkle the toppings on after I frost them.
