Crunchy Homemade Ice Cream Cups
Did you know that you can make your ice cream cups and cones at home? No special tools or machines are required.
These guys taste just like crunchy buttery cookies and compliment your ice cream or frozen yogurt well. You can also fill them with whipped cream and strawberries.
Oh, did I mention how easy these are to make? You can either bake them in the oven or on the stovetop. Completely up to you.
Ready to cook? Let’s get started:
First, we make a simple batter consisting of flour, confectioners sugar, butter, egg whites, and vanilla.
Looks just like a regular pancake or crepe batter.
Next, we spoon a mound of batter on a parchment-lined cookie sheet
With a spoon, we spread the dough thinly in a circular motion
The thinner the batter spreads, the crunchier your ice cream cups will be
Next, we bake them for 5-6 minutes or until the borders start to turn a bit brown
Quickly, we remove them from the oven and give them in our desired shape. I used small bowls nestled between one on top of the other.
You can use whatever you may like. When they cool, they will turn crunchy and retain shape.
For smaller cups, use the bottom of the glasses. I simply placed them and with the help of a kitchen towel, pressed the dough at the end.
That is it, see? I told you it was easy.
For a cone shape, simply roll them leaving a big opening on top. You can also do a cigar shape and dip them in chocolate (a great topping for ice cream).
One little dough, so many uses.
Now, to top my crunchy cups, I used delicious Kemps Yo² Frozen Yogurt. It’s creamy, dreamy, and so tasty.
While decadent, Yo² frozen yogurt has no high fructose corn syrup, no artificial flavors, and no added growth hormones. Yo² helps you satisfy your cravings without feeling guilty.
I found mine FroYo in the freezer section of my Winn Dixie Store. Be on the lookout for yours.
