Campfire Cones (Fun & Easy Summer Dessert)
Campfire Cones are fun to make AND eat!
Gooey marshmallow-filled campfire cones are a fun twist to traditional s’mores and can be customized with endless possibilities! It’s always such a crowd-pleasing dessert as everyone can fill with their favorite add-ins, and these campfire cones cook up in a cinch.
Who knew ice cream cones could be so versatile?!
While s’mores are a simple treat already, waffle cones make for such a fun variation since they are a little crispier and are perfect for a handheld snack. And don’t let the term “campfire” cones throw you! While these can be cooked over a fire, you can also make them on the grill or in the oven!
In fact, we even had a reader mention she made these in the microwave (without the foil, of course) and stood the cone upright in the microwave by placing it inside a coffee mug.
