Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Waffle cones
- 3 cups Ice cream (any flavor)
- 1 cup Chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 0.5 cup Sprinkles
- 1 cup Whipped cream
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Carefully heat each waffle cone in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to make them pliable. Immediately and gently press the softened cone into a taco shell shape using your hands or by wrapping it around the edge of a small bowl. Let cool and harden for about 5 minutes.
Scoop ice cream into each waffle taco shell, filling them generously but leaving space at the top for toppings. Place filled taco shells in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to firm up while you prepare the toppings.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Remove the ice cream tacos from the freezer. Dip the edges of each taco into the melted chocolate, letting any excess drip back into the bowl, then immediately sprinkle the chocolate-dipped edges with sprinkles or nuts.
Place the tacos back in the freezer for 5-10 minutes to set the chocolate coating.
Just before serving, top each taco with whipped cream. Serve immediately and enjoy!
