Ingredients
  

  • 12 waffle cones
  • 1 cup milk or semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil optional
  • ½ cup red white, and blue sprinkles
  • 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
  • 3 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries halved
  • ¾ cup fresh blueberries
  • Optional Fillings
  • Vanilla ice cream
  • Cheesecake mousse
  • Lemon curd
  • Strawberry jam

Instructions
 

  • PREP YOUR WORKSTATION: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to hold the dipped cones while they set.
  • MELT THE CHOCOLATE: Combine chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth.
  • DIP THE CONES: Submerge the top edges of each waffle cone into the melted chocolate, coating about 1 inch. Tap gently to remove any excess chocolate.
  • ADD SPRINKLES: While the chocolate is still wet, immediately roll the rims in red, white, and blue sprinkles. Stand the cones upright in cups or a cone holder and allow to cool at room temperature or briefly chill in the refrigerator.
  • MAKE THE WHIPPED CREAM: Use a hand or stand mixer to beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then continue beating until stiff peaks form. Do not over-mix.
  • ASSEMBLE: Once the chocolate has set, fill each cone with whipped cream using a spoon or piping bag. Top with one halved strawberry and a few blueberries.

Notes

You can prepare the cones and whipped cream in advance, then assemble just before serving. Try swapping whipped cream with one of the optional fillings to vary the flavor.
