Hats off to these chocolate temptations
made from ice cream cones and purchased cookies. Each cone is
filled with candy treats before it is attached to the base, making
for a sweet surprise.
Candy-Filled
Hats
- Self-sealing plastic bag
1 can chocolate frosting
20 chocolate ice cream cones
Candy corn or assorted small candies
Large green and yellow gumdrops (optional)
20 (2- to 3-inch) chocolate cookies
- Fill plastic bag with
some chocolate frosting. Seal bag and cut a very small end off
one corner of the bag and set aside. For each hat, invert one
ice cream cone and fill with about 2 tablespoons candy corn or
small candies. Pipe some frosting from bag along bottom edge
of cone. Press a cookie against frosting. Carefully invert right
side up onto waxed paper-lined cookie sheet.
- Decorate outside of cone
with small candies, using additional frosting as necessary. Refill
frosting bag as needed. If desired, roll out large green and
yellow gumdrops on a sugared surface until 1/8 inch thick. Cut
into 1/4-inch strips. Press green strips around brim of hat and
cut smaller pieces from yellow strips to make a buckle; press
onto hat.
Makes 20 hats.
