Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes



I made these simple cakes recently mainly because I had seen them on blogs and wanted to see if it worked. As you can see I overfilled them and got a nice melted ice cream look :-) I didn't frost them as already very sweet but would look cool, these are perfect for a kids birthday party.






Ingredients:

  • 4 oz self raising flour
  • 4 oz butter 
  • 4 oz sugar 
  • 2 eggs
  • a dash of vanilla essence

Method:

  1. cream the butter and sugar
  2. add eggs and flour and vanilla
  3. add to ice cream cones and bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes 
We are going to Charleston SC for the weekend this week, really excited its been months since we have been away and love the beach and Charleston, fun history and amazing food already have reservations for Husk :-) 
Please pray little Jasmine stops being so jealous of her baby brother. This evening she threw a yogurt carton at his eye and it bleed I was so upset and hubby came home from work. His friend also a doctor came over to check on him and my neighbor came to calm me down. Praise God he is OK just a little red in corner of his eye. Not sure how to handle Jasmine but it should get better in the meantime Roshan will have to be next to me at all times.

    You had me fooled - I thought it was ice cream when I first saw the pic. I'd love to see the kids reaction when they first see this!

    Love the look of melted ice cream; it must have made Jasmine a happy girl.
    Sometimes, sweet is sweet enough.

    I'm so sorry to read about Jasmine, Rebecca. I'm sure she will love little Roshan as he gets older and can relate to her more. In the meantime, I'm sure you will know how to make her understand that she's has to be gentle with the little one.

    Have a wonderful time in Charleston and love the ice cream cone cupcakes - used to make those years ago too ;)

    I could relate to the Jasmine jealousy scenario. My oldest daughter was so jealous of my second daughter. She was 3 1/2 when I had my second daughter. One time she had a baseball bat and hit my daughter. It's a good thing that baseball bat is a toy one made of plastic.
    What we did was we went for a holiday bringing just her and explained to her that we love her as much as we love our second daughter. We also put her to school to divert her attention and it worked.
    I hope it settles down soon. But I think it's pretty normal to be jealous at their age.

    I love ice cream cone cupcakes! They look so cute and the cake tastes yummy with the cone. Hope you have a nice time in SC. My son was Jasmine's age when my daughter was born, and he did not take it well either. At one point, he asked when she was going home...lol I had to break it to him that she was here to stay. Jasmine will come around; I think girls do more quickly due to a little mothering instinct. Glad the baby is okay:)

    Rebecca- When I was little all the room mothers used to bring these in for our school parties. I have such fond memories of them. I bet little Jasmine loved them :)

    You are doing a great job with the two kiddos!

    These are so sweet, Rebecca and great fun. Allow for jealousy - they are very young and figuring stuff out - so they won't always behave "appropriately." It seems to work out with care and time and love.
