TIP OF THE DAY: Ice Cream Cone Tips
A marshmallow in the tip means no drip. |
To keep an ice cream cone from dripping, stuff a miniature marshmallow or two into the bottom of the cone. It will plug up the tip so that ice cream doesn’t drip through.

Preparation 1. Set out 8 glasses to hold the cones until they set. Place decorations on a small plate (you’ll be dipping the cone into them). 2. Add chocolate and shortening to a medium bowl or double boiler. Set over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir until melted and smooth. 3. Remove bowl from water pan. Let chocolate stand until cool enough to work with, about 5 minutes. 4. Dip wide end of ice cream cone into chocolate. Rotate to create a 1/4-inch chocolate rim. Hold cone upside-down until the chocolate is almost set (about 10 seconds). 5. Roll chocolate into the decoration, pressing gently as needed to adhere. 6. Place cone into glass to set. Makes 8 cones. The cones can be prepared a week in advance; wrap each cone individually with plastic to maintain crispness. If possible, store in an airtight container.
