Having fun foods for kids to eat during holiday celebrations is important to me. I love to see their faces when I bring out a platter of something colorful and unique!  These Patriotic Cupcake Cones will be a huge hit for Memorial Day or 4th of July. What is not to love, right?
 

Patriotic Cupcake Cones

I love how these really look like an ice cream cone, but when you bite in…you get white chocolate and cake!!  During the hot summer months ice cream melts fast and is hard to manage when you are entertaining.  These will be a lot less messy!

How to Make Patriotic Cupcake Cones

First preheat the oven according to the cake box instructions.
 
Next you will take a large mixing bowl and prepare the cake batter according to the instructions on the box.

Just before the chocolate cools add some sprinkles around the cone.  Let the chocolate finish setting up.
 
Refrigerate the cupcake cones for about 15 minutes.
 
Last take your frosting and frost the top of each cone so that it looks like ice cream!
