Rice Krispies Treats Ice Cream Cones

Make these Rice Krispies Treats Ice Cream Cones for your next children’s party. They combine the best of two worlds: crispy snack bars & ice cream cones, for one amazing party dessert!

Have I got the perfect kids party treat for you! These sweet treats are a tiny part of my latest contribution to Yum Food & Fun for Kids magazine, photographed by Anne Weston Photography. You can see more about the magazine feature here, but first I wanted to tell you about these Rice Krispies Treats “Ice Cream Cones.”

These are simple to make but they are delicious {of course} and are a wonderful addition to any ice cream party, birthday party, or carnival themed party {or “just because”}. Here’s what you do:

Rice Krispies Treats Ice Cream Cones

• 1 pack ice cream cones {I like these sugar cones best but the flat bottom or waffle cones would work too}
• 1 batch of prepared Rice Krispies Treats {no need to put them in a serving dish since you’ll be rolling them into balls – just work out of the pan you mix them in}
• Chocolate melting disks or chips, melted over a double boiler
• Red m&m’s or other red candy
• butter or margarine

Mix up a batch of rice krispies treats and let cool slightly so you can handle it. Meanwhile have your melted chocolate handy.

Apply a light coating of butter to your hands so you can work with the treat mixture without it sticking to you. Now grab a handful of rice krispies treats and form into a ball the size of your ice cream cone.

Dip the top of the ball into the melted chocolate and let it run down a bit. Top with a red candy piece for the “cherry” on top, and place the rice krispies ball on the cone. Work it in a little so the ball is secure.

Display the cones nestled into a dish filled with colorful candies.

PARTY TIP: Use something like dried beans or dry rice as a base layer, and then top with the candies so they are the only thing that shows.
