One of my favorite things is to get kids involved while you cook, however not all parents feel comfortable doing so. An easy way to get kids excited about food is to create similar activities for them to do while your cooking, i.e. while your kids are waiting for the cake cones to cook have them draw their favorite flavor of ice cream in a cup or bowl with lots of toppings.
- Cream the butter and sugar for 3 minutes
- Add the eggs one at a time
- Add the vanilla – it will look curdled
- Add 1/3 of the dry ingredients and then add a 1/3 of the milk. Continue until you have added all of dry and wet ingredients.
- Pour into ice cream cones and top with sprinkles.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes but be sure to run a skewer to the bottom of the cone to make sure it’s cooked all the way to the bottom.
