Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Waffle cones
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Chopped peanuts
- 0.25 cup Chocolate syrup
Instructions
Crush the waffle cones into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a resealable plastic bag and crushing them with a rolling pin.
Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl and combine it with the waffle cone crumbs and granulated sugar. Mix until evenly coated.
Press the waffle cone mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust. Place the pan in the freezer to set while preparing the filling.
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
Spread the cream cheese and whipped cream layer evenly over the chilled crust.
Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in short intervals, stirring often, until smooth. Let it cool slightly before drizzling over the top of the cream layer.
Sprinkle the chopped peanuts over the melted chocolate layer to give it a classic drumstick crunch.
Drizzle chocolate syrup over the top as a finishing touch.
Freeze the dessert for at least 4 hours or overnight to set completely.
To serve, let the drumstick dessert sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes. Run a knife around the edges of the pan before releasing the sides of the springform pan. Slice and enjoy!
