I have to find a reason to make these! Instructions added.
I need to have a tea party or something.
Ingredients:
- Vanilla sandwich cookie wafers
- Reese's Miniature Peanut Butter Cups
- Ice cream sugar cones (top 1-1/2 inch)
- Circle pretzels (found in Chex Mix Sweet 'n Salty Honey Nut mix)
- Chocolate frosting (chocolate pudding, chocolate ganache, etc.)
- Chocolate or vanilla candy melts
Step one
Cut the sugar cones to 1-1/2 inches. To avoid breaking them, dip the bottoms in warm water for 20 seconds. Using a serrated knife, trim off where the wet area meets the dry. Allow these to dry completely before assembling.
Step two
Separate the cookie wafers and clean off filling.
Step three
Trim off one small piece of the circle pretzels to create two handle points.
Step four
Melt two ounces of chocolate or vanilla candy melts in a zip-top bag in the microwave (twice for 30 seconds usually does the trick).
Step five
Snip off the corner of the zip-top bag and dab a little candy melt in the center of the cookie wafers.
Step six
Place unwrapped Reese's Miniature Peanut Butter Cups on top of the candy melt on the cookie wafers.
Step seven
Place the cut ice cream cones on top of the Reese's cups.
Step eight
Pipe more of the candy melt inside the ice cream cones, where the edge meets the Reese's cup.
Step nine
Pipe frosting, pudding or ganache inside the ice cream cones.
Step ten
Add a dab of candy melt to the cut off edges of the circle pretzels and attach them to the sides of the ice cream cones. You may need to hold them in place for a few seconds until the candy melt holds firmly and stays in place.
Helpful hints: Have everything unwrapped, cut, trimmed and ready to assemble. If your candy melt starts to harden, just microwave the zip-top bag for 20 to 30 seconds to soften.
Note: These are best served on the same day as preparation. The frosting, pudding or ganache filling tends to soften the sugar cone the longer it sits.

That's adorable. "Practice" making them so so when you have a tea party you'll be able to make them really well. That's a good reason!! :D
