Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes

These Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes are super fun to make with the kiddos!

Hello, it’s Doree here from Top Notch Mom sharing this Ice Cream Cone Cupcake recipe just in time for summer! Ice Cream Cone cupcakes were always one of my favorite things to make when I was a kid and I just love that I can make them with my 3 year old now. For these cupcakes we made homemade funfetti batter and pink lemonade frosting. I love anything pink and lemony in the summer time, don’t you? Whether you make these with your kids or not, the best part is decorating them! We had so much fun piping the frosting like ice cream and adding a variety of sprinkles on top.
