Mini Drumsticks

I had this brilliant idea to make mini drumsticks...They ended up being delicious although they were quite a bit of work! Here's how I did it:


Mini Drumsticks

1. Make cones (see recipe below). Once cool, drop a chocolate chip in the bottom and drizzle in a little melted chocolate. everyone knows that's the best part of a drumstick!
2. Fill with ice cream (I made half with homemade carmel ice cream and half with Banana. The Banana was easier to work with. Here's the recipe: http://keepingupwithkak.blogspot.com/2012/01/banana-ice-cream-for-all.html)
3. Freeze overnight so ice cream is good and hard.
4. Melt chocolate, dip cones (or use a spoon) in chocolate. The chocolate will harden quickly so be prepared to add toppings fast!
5. Freeze until you are ready to serve. Enjoy!


Waffle Cones
3/4 c sugar
1 egg
2T melted butter
2t vanilla extract
1/4c half-and-half
1/3c all purpose flour

1. Heat small pan over medium heat.
2. Whisk sugar, egg, butter, vanilla extract, cream and flour in small bowl.
3. Spray the inside of the skillet with cooking spray and lower the heat to medium-low. You don't want it to be too hot. Add enough batter, in a thin layer, to create your cone, more batter for larger cones, less better (enough to make about a 4-inch circle) for smaller cones.
4. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until the bottom begins to lightly brown. BE PATIENT. 3 minutes is longer than you think and you'll only make a mess if you flip them too soon. Carefully flip the dough over with a spatula and cook on the other side until browned.
5. Remove from the pan and immediately roll it into a cone shapeI used construction paper to form a cone and wrapped it in wax paper to help the cone slide off. Pinch the bottom to close and prevent leaks.
6. Let cones cool on wax paper, flat side down.
