My daughter created this recipe after she tried this dessert at a restaurant in England, where she is currently stationed in the US Air Force. She asked for the recipe but they refused to share. The delight in this special sundae is the surprise at the bottom of the dish.

Creative Ice Cream Cones

If you're having an ice cream bar at your event, offer an assortment of decorated ice cream cones. Start by purchasing a variety of waffle, cake and sugar cones. Place toppings in separate small bowls. (Try flaked coconut, chopped nuts, colored sprinkles and chocolate jimmies.) Melt white and/or milk chocolate candy coating; dip the tops of the cones into the melted chocolate. Roll the chocolate-covered top of each cone into toppings of your choice. Set decorated cones in ice cream cone holders until chocolate is set. (If making these cute cones a few days in advance, store in airtight containers at room temperature, using waxed paper to separate layers.)
