Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cones Sugar cones
- 1.5 cups Dark chocolate chips (low sodium)
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 quart Vanilla ice cream (low sodium)
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (unsalted, optional)
- 0.25 cup Sprinkles (unsalted, optional)
Instructions
Begin by preparing your workspace. Place a sheet of parchment paper on a baking tray, which will be used to dry the dipped cones.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil.
Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is just melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat.
Take one sugar cone at a time and dip the rim into the melted chocolate, rolling slightly to coat evenly.
If desired, immediately sprinkle the chopped nuts or sprinkles over the wet chocolate to add a decorative touch.
Place the dipped cone upright onto the prepared baking sheet to set. Repeat with the remaining cones.
Once all the cones are dipped and decorated, place the tray in a refrigerator for about 10 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set.
When ready to serve, fill each cone generously with your chosen low sodium vanilla ice cream and enjoy!
