Ingredients

Scale

Batter Ingredients

  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or extract
  • 1 teaspoon almond emulsion or extract
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add the 2 egg whites and 1/4 cup heavy cream to start your batter base.
  2. Add Flavor and Sweetness: Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar, along with 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or extract and 1 teaspoon almond emulsion or extract to the bowl.
  3. Mix Batter: Whisk the mixture to combine everything evenly, then stir in 6 tablespoons melted unsalted butter and 2/3 cup all-purpose flour. Whisk again until the batter is smooth with no lumps.
  4. Preheat Waffle Cone Maker: Heat your waffle cone machine according to its instructions to ensure proper cooking temperature for crisp cones.
  5. Cook the Batter: Scoop about 1/2 cup of batter onto the heated waffle cone maker and press down. Cook for approximately 1 minute until golden and fragrant.
  6. Shape the Cone: Immediately remove the cooked waffle and quickly roll it around a cone mold to create the classic cone shape before it hardens.
  7. Repeat Cooking: As you shape the cones, add more batter to the waffle maker and continue cooking and molding as desired.
  8. Create Waffle Cups Optionally: Instead of rolling, place the warm waffle on top of a cup and pinch the sides or place it in a small bowl with another cup inside to form waffle cups.
  9. Cool and Serve: Allow the cones or cups to cool completely so they harden and become crisp, then fill with your favorite ice cream and enjoy.

Notes

  • Work quickly when shaping cones as the waffle cools and hardens fast.
  • Use a cone or cup mold for consistent shape and easier handling.
  • Store leftover cones in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
  • You can substitute almond emulsion with more vanilla extract if preferred.
  • Ensure waffle cone machine is well preheated to prevent sticking and to cook evenly.
