Cupcakes
- 1 & 1/2 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 stick butter, melted
- 1 & 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 cup sour cream
Vanilla Buttercream
- 2 sticks butter, room temperature
- 1 cup vegetable shortening
- 3.5-5 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- dash of milk, if frosting becomes too thick
Directions:
Cupcakes
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a small bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar. Whisk and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl combine the eggs, melted butter, vanilla, and sour cream until combined.
- Slowly add half of the flour mixture to the liquid, stirring to combine. Repeat with the rest of the flour mixture.
- To get the ice cream cones to stand up while baking, use a disposable foil baking pan and cut circles in the bottom of the pan that are large enough to hold a cone. Place the baking pan upside down on a regular baking sheet.
- Divide the batter among the ice cream cones, fill each about 1/2 full, they puff up a lot when baking.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow them to cool completely.
Buttercream
- In a mixing bowl, combine the room temperature butter and shortening, beat using an electric mixer for 2 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Begin to add in the powdered sugar, about 1 cup at a time. Slowly beat the mixture until the powered sugar is incorporated. Continue this process, adding enough powdered sugar to make sure the frosting isn’t too wet.
- Add in the vanilla and beat until just combined. If the frosting becomes too thick, add in a dash of milk until you have the right consistency.
To assemble the cupcakes
- Once the ice cream cone cupcakes are completely cooled, begin to add the frosting. Using a large cookie scoop, scoop buttercream frosting into the scoop as you would with ice cream.
- Use the cookie scoop release trigger to gently drop the frosting on top of each cupcake. Using a large cookie scoop to scoop the frosting will give the effect that the frosting is ice cream.
- Melt 2-3 squares of chocolate candiquik and 1/2 tbsp vegetable shortening in the small bowl.
- Microwave of 50% powder for 2-3 minutes until the chocolate is melted. Stir to combine everything. Allow the chocolate to cool off slightly, about 3 minutes. Use a spoon to use chocolate on top of each cupcake.
- The chocolate should naturally harden and not drip all the way down the cupcake.
- Pipe a dollop of cool whip onto each cupcake.
- Add sprinkles and a maraschino cherry to each.
- Serve and enjoy!
