["First off, these were my favorite cupcakes as a kid & sadly I don't see too many people making them anymore.", "They are soooo cute, fun, easy to make and the little ones absolutely love them.", "I suggest ""Joy"" ice cream cones & ""Betty Crocker Party Rainbow Chip SuperMoist Cake Mix"" - the rainbow chips add to the cuteness.", "If you're icing by hand you may only need one container of icing - but if you're swirling it up with a piping / decorating bag you will need 2-3 containers of icing.", "Also - buy extra cones - plan on finding a few cracked or broken unusable cones.", "Preheat oven to 350 - remove second / middle oven rack if necessary.", "Prepare cake mix according to directions.", "Fill cones no more than 3/4 full.", "Over filling causes the cakemix to bake/spill over the sides - you want it to rise just a bit over the top of the cone.", "I like ""Joy"" cones because they have a line inside the cone - i pour the cake mix so it's about a 1/2"" over that line.", "So it's time to bake them.", "I've heard people say they have a hard time getting these cuties into the oven without knocking them over.", "If you forsee that issue - you can put you're baking sheets/tray in the oven first, and then carefully put each conecake onto the baking sheet.", "Just make sure you use your bottom oven rack - and pull the middle rack out before heating the oven.", "Bake 15 - 20 minutes or until toothpick in center of cake comes out clean.", "Cool & frost.", "I suggest using a 1M tip & decorating piping bag.", "Drain cherries & blot off extra liquid with a paper towel.", "Put a cherry on top of each cupcake :)", "Last - but not least - throw lotsa cute rainbow sprinkles on tops.", "These are best when eaten the same day as they are made - the cone starts getting a bit chewy/leathery after a day.", "Transporting these cupcakes can be interesting, lol, they like to topple over.", "I remember a friends mom used a pizza box & cut small squares all over the box to fit the cones into.", "I use 6 - large / 2lb.", "white candy boxes & cut four squares in each box.", "Then you just gotta find a box or container that's wide enough & high enough to fit them in - you deff don't wanna topple or smash your super cute creations.", "Enjoy"]
