I found this recipe from Martha Stewarts Magazine and they turned out great. The Kids loved them. Ingredients:
14 flat-bottomed wafer ice cream cones |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup brewed decaffeinated coffee, plus |
2 tablespoons brewed decaffeinated coffee |
5 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped |
3/4 cup unsalted butter |
1 1/2 cups sugar, plus |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1 large egg, lightly beaten |
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract |
1/2 tablespoon instant espresso |
1/2 cup heavy cream |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Stand cones on an ungreased baking sheet.
3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt; set dry ingredients aside.
4. Set a medium saucepan full of water over medium heat; bring water to a boil.
5. Reduce heat to medium high, and let water simmer.
6. In the heatproof bowl of an electric mixer, combine brewed coffee, 2 1/2 ounces chocolate, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter.
7. Set bowl over simmering water, stirring occasionally, until the butter and chocolate have melted.
8. Remove bowl from heat; stir in 1 cup sugar.
9. Transfer bowl to mixer.
10. Add the reserved dry ingredients, and beat until well combined.
11. Add the egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla; beat to combine.
12. Pour batter into the cones, filling each cone 3/4 full.
13. Transfer baking sheet to oven, and bake until domes form and a cake tester inserted into centers come out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
14. Remove from oven, and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
15. Combine the remaining 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, espresso, and cream in a heavy saucepan.
16. Set over high heat, and bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
17. Reduce heat to medium; simmer, without stirring, 5 minutes.
18. Remove pan from heat; add remaining 2 1/2 ounces chocolate, stirring until melted.
19. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla.
20. Chill, stirring occasionally, until icing is cool enough to spread.
21. Using an offset spatula, spread icing over ice-cream-cone tops.
22. Serve.
