Pillsbury strawberry cake mix for these. Pre-heat oven to 350. Fill cones about 2/3 full and bake about 20 mins, until a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out clean. The cake will be just over the top of the cone. Then pour about a spoon full of batter in each cup of a muffin tin. They cook quickly so check on them after about 8-10 mins. Once they are cooled use a little frosting to stick the cupcake tops on the cones. Then use a pastry bag and a star tip to frost around the cupcake. Then using a butter knife in a circular motion mess up the frosting. You can just apply the frosting like you would normally frost a cupcake, but I think it looks a little better applying it with the pastry bags. Then add sprinkles.The frosting I made for these cupcakes came out really yummy, but I made it up and am not sure exactly on the amounts. So if you are not familiar with making frosting this may not a good recipe to use, but if you can kinda figure it out for your own here is basically what I did.
1 package sugar free jello mixed with one cup hot water that has soft set in the freezer for about 30 mins. With a mixer combine a thing of lite coolwhip with the soft set jello. I used about a cup of the coolwhip mixture and mix in about 1/2 - 3/4 cup of shortening and powder sugar until desired texture is achieved.
