Prince And Princess Ice Cream Cones Recipes

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:

• 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.

CHOCOLATE PRINCESS CASTLE CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Spray bottoms and sides of four 8-inch square pans with baking spray with flour. In large bowl, beat 1 cake mix, 1 cup of the water, 1/2 cup of the oil and 3 eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Divide batter between 2 of the pans.
• Bake 27 to 34 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. Repeat with remaining cake mix, water, oil and eggs. Chill cakes in freezer 45 minutes before cutting to reduce crumbs.
• Cut off domed top from each cake so they will be flat when stacked. On tray, place cake A (see diagram); spread with 1/3 cup frosting. Top with cake B; spread with 1/3 cup frosting. Top with cake C; spread with 1/3 cup chocolate frosting.
• Cut fourth cake into quarters. Place one quarter (piece 1) on top of stacked cakes; spread top with 1 tablespoon frosting. Cut second quarter horizontally in half; place half of second quarter on top of first quarter and spread top with 1 tablespoon frosting. Cut third quarter into 2-inch square; place on center of cake stack. (Discard remaining cake, or reserve for another use.)
• Reserve 2 tablespoons frosting in resealable food-storage plastic bag. To seal crumbs, spread thin layer of frosting over layered cake, and refrigerate or freeze cake 30 to 60 minutes to set frosting. Spread remaining frosting over entire cake. Place fudge-dipped cone upside down on center of cake. Place 4 regular ice cream cones upside down on corners of cake.
• Dip edges of miniature cones into white decorating icing; sprinkle with blue sugar. Place upside down on top of larger cones. Top each cone with candy star, attaching with small amount of white icing.
• Cut 1 wafer cookie in half crosswise. Cut tiny corner from bag of frosting; pipe frosting on 2 whole and 1 half cookies for window panes. Place windows on castle. Insert ends of pretzels slightly into cake for drawbridge. Place 2 cookies on drawbridge for door; press tops slightly against cake. Add cinnamon candies to doors and front of cake. Add licorice for bridge wire.
• Place peanut butter cup candies upside down on 4 corners near top of castle. To make turrets, add red jujube candies and gum balls to peanut butter candies with small amount of white icing. Add caramels to front of cake for parapets. Store loosely covered.

ICE-CREAM CONE CAKES

Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until tops spring back when touched lightly in center; cool. Frost with frosting. Decorate as desired.
