These are so much better than the cardboard tasting store-bought - unless you want to spend a fortune. Thanks so much for the great demonstration of making the cone 'coolers'. I'm sure to break at least the first one...

[@Berserk_Knight]

These worked great. Thanks!

[@twinslotaddicts]

They look amazing!!

[@bonniekonjevich7574]

You are a gift to the practical homemaker-cook.. Thought I needed the $49 waffle cone maker!

[@tarjei99]

You can also use a cup to shape the cookie for a more rustic look. The cookie goes inside the cup and you fold it gently so that it fits.

[@Spoif]

The template is a GREAT tip.

[@lspiegel5704]

Also, you can use a smaller cookie on the underside of a slightly greased muffin tin to form bowls.

[@rebecamurray4994]

Awesome idea. Thanks

[@tricia-grandmothergrizzlyf3514]

AWESOME...Great video!!

[@MrGuatemala69]

Wow thank you so much

[@eyeonart6865]

I love the chocolate waffle cones but they have aweful additives so I gave them but now i can make my own by adding alittle choco to the batter. thanks so much!

[@Zreknarf]

broken cones are to be eaten immediately by the cook.. heheh

[@santhimusic2476]

I saw someone doing that behind her.

[@deyamalik3896]

wow really amazing and easy tkx dear love from Pakistan

[@Shooter4829]

Took 5 mins to make the batter, then used a waffle iron to cook them. Didn't bother with the cone shape. Anyone saying that it's to time consuming is full of crap. If you have time to watch youtube videos you have 10 mins to make these. Lazy people these days

[@daliaramy8890]

i made your recipe very nice but i used powdered white sugar and 1 tbsp chocolate i increased the amount of milk and made it in a non stick pan on the stove then i rolled them and put in the oven in low temprature to be crispy thank you

[@nidhimaria4478]

nice

[@MrEquusQuagga]

nice

[@daliaramy8890]

thank you nice people

[@dena180]

did you flip them in the pan?

[@MrEquusQuagga]

Yes I did Clay. Why do you ask?

[@45929058]

Beautiful

[@heenagajjar7660]

Very nice

[@thesunrises4557]

WOW!!!

[@rrrrr5102006]

Parchment? Got you... My Kids are gonna love this. Thank you.

[@vijaykumarsap2078]

g

[@eysiiyan2957]

can i do this in a non stick pan

[@impotato4603]

Is it crunchy though??

[@wafflestrawberry]

can you teach how to make cone like in Mcdonald or KFC cone?I like soft and thin cone like at McD

[@pramilajain4403]

can we use curd

[@Maazzzo]

Suggestions for gluten free?

[@rafybouroufaiel6374]

hello can can make it in I waffle machibe??

[@peachy_michy333]

can you apply the cookie mix directly to the parchment paper instead of the non stick silicone? i do not have one nor a jelly mat. will they come off as easily?

[@denisedonovan956]

Yes you can, I did this today and no problem with getting them off. I used a large muffin tin to shape them. Very easy, they weren't the greatest looking but tasted great.

[@mamtadonda4062]

Can I make eggless?plz tel how?

[@AvroAero1]

Make smaller circles to make snack size cones and fill with sorbet for kids

[@tylerosborne4980]

Ahh yeah! You know it, bro!

[@sliewood]

Amanda Coello; yes to gluten free version. Use Google to find a recipe but the technique is the same. Most recipes will use almond flour which tastes miles better anyway!Good luck! X

[@wendyayala4454]

I always love the idea of skipping the grocery store and being able to make things myself but I didn't hear you mention anything about pinching the tip of the come to avoid leakage. Is this a necessary step or does it get rolled tight enough so there will be no leaks?

[@ABaumstumpf]

You coat the inside with chocolate - seals of the tip too :P

[@mysnellvilleblog]

I would think the nonstick Reynolds wrap would be great for this

[@apace003]

Use a pizzelle maker to make cones with a design on them.

[@abubakercheema3566]

Gooood

[@aaronxalapa]

could I make this on a frypan?

[@shawtysoobeautifull]

Easy

[@AHFB]

Wouldn't it make sense to crimp the bottoms before they set so nothing drips out? Or would that not work?

[@ukspankedyank]

I saw one technique where you first fold the bottom over the tip of the form then roll it tight.

[@sithis3419]

Super mom

[@lifeasleeza3694]

How many cones does this make???

[@rafybouroufaiel6374]

I did it but the batter is sooo runy

[@salahnatsheh7761]

رائعععععع

[@agromandy91]

Can you use a gluten free version

[@canis582]

how do you get your hand burned working at a place that slow?

[@Mad5cout]

correct me if I am wrong but if you made these just a long rectangle and cut kind of a zig zag down the length of it, the cones would have a slightly flatter top to them.

[@puspendumondal4478]

Mad5cout

[@berighteous]

yeah, just make the rounds smaller and work quick.

[@muckymucks]

If the cookies harden after taking them out of the oven then use two trays. Take one tray out, fold the cookies, then take out the next tray and fold those cookies.

[@Maazzzo]

Excellent advice to someone who is allergic to gluten. If you can't be helpful, why not just not reply? I have bought gluten-free ice cream cones, before. They're expensive and I'd prefer a home-made version. Really, there was no reason to be so rude. It was a reasonable question, I'm not the only person who is allergic to gluten in this world, can't be the only person who has wondered. No reason to reply if you can't be kind.

[@kippaseo8027]

Or they sell them at all d

[@vicofour]

it's way cooler to make the whole thing yourself =]

[@berighteous]

it might work better to spread the regular cookie dough on parchment lines cones and bake it that way. Then just pull the parchment and the cone will release.

[@novagatortroller2892]

The bacon one is best

[@drthmik]

if you want limp doughy cones, yes.

[@AlwayzPr0]

use stuff with no gluten.

[@Non594]

I want this woman to be my teacher. :o

[@Maazzzo]

No help, non-gluten flour has a different absorption rate for liquids, you can't just plug in non-GF stuff. Thanks, though.

[@helpfulnatural]

I made this recipe today and used my waffle cone maker. Every single one of them burned. I think the high sugar content is the problem. It's a very tasty and crispy cookie batter but it just didn't work in my machine. :(

[@eyeonart6865]

The heat was to high!

[@marg4229]

Maybe just forget the maker and bake them in the oven instead?

[@windermere2330]

Try the waffle cone recipe from Jeni’s Ice Cream. It’s really good!

[@issadream5009]

Damn I already bought the machine and I didn't even needed it smh

[@BBonadea]

Unsalted butter is the devil

[@Satoshi9801]

Why? It's better.

[@BBonadea]

Satoshi9801 I'm not very fond of it. Totally changes the taste of things to me, even if I add the salt. I agree to disagree.

[@vijaykumarsap2078]

BBonadea

[@logicape]

Both have their purpose. For cooking, especially baking, unsalted lets you totally control the salt content. For normal use (toast, popcorn, etc), salted is the way to go for flavor.

[@jojococoa]

this is too much work! can't i just use pre-made cookie dough and roll it out to be large thin cookies and under-bake them so they are still soft and pliable?

[@windermere2330]

Just make waffle cones they are easier. But you have to have a waffle cone maker.

[@BeaDSM]

You didn't pinch the ends; these will drip and so fail the most basic test of being an effective ice cream cone.

[@Fatmatube]

Can i use without eggs ? because I'm vegan

[@cube3634]

Such a long process....

[@berighteous]

There is no such thing as a gluten free ice cream cone. There shouldn't be any such thing as a gluten free ice cream cone. Deal with it. Just eat the cone.

[@santhimusic2476]

I cant listen to too much talking

[@sumgai7]

You must have a fairly disappointing life with that threshold of distress tolerance. >;-)

[@jessicathomson9142]

Oh my gosh. Who has time for this?

[@xvzw]

Me ;)

[@Grannyj137]

Jessica Thomson that's why they sell them in grocery stores.

[@windermere2330]

Ah! This comment Jessica is from pre-Covid times. I sure have time now!

[@jhchooo]

Wow, 2 hours and all that paper and foil wasted to make 6 cones? Not to mention all the dishes I have to clean. I just wasted 3 minutes of my life watching this. Thanks ATK.
