Description
Campfire Cones are a fun and delicious treat perfect for cooking over an open flame. These cones are filled with a sweet mix of chocolate, marshmallows, and other goodies, all melted together into a gooey, indulgent dessert. Ideal for camping trips or backyard bonfires!
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 waffle cones
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate)
- 1/2 cup peanut butter chips (optional)
- 1/2 cup M&Ms or other small candy pieces (optional)
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional, e.g., peanuts, almonds, or walnuts)
- Aluminum foil (for wrapping cones)
- Sprinkles (optional, for added fun)
Instructions
- Preheat the campfire or grill to medium heat.
- Place the waffle cones in an upright position and fill each cone with layers of mini marshmallows, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, candy pieces, and chopped nuts (if using). Be sure to fill the cones almost to the top.
- If desired, add sprinkles to the top for a fun, colorful touch.
- Wrap each cone tightly in aluminum foil, making sure the edges are sealed to prevent any melting ingredients from spilling out.
- Place the wrapped cones on the grill or campfire grate, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the chocolate and marshmallows are melted and gooey. You can also hold the cones over the fire using tongs for a few minutes, turning them gently.
- Once the cones are done, carefully remove them from the heat and let them cool slightly before unwrapping. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Be careful not to burn the cones, as they can get crispy very quickly over an open flame.
- For a fun twist, try adding fruit like sliced bananas or strawberries to the mix.
- If you don’t have a campfire, you can also make these in a conventional oven. Simply place the foil-wrapped cones on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes.
- Experiment with different types of chocolate and candies to create your own favorite combination.
- These cones are very customizable — feel free to add other sweet treats, like caramel bits, pretzels, or toffee pieces.
