Halloween Mousse Ice Cream Cones

    Chocolate Mousse is always a great dessert, so why not make it extra spectacular when you serve it up as these Halloween Mousse Ice Cream Cones covered in sprinkles.

    Halloween Chocolate Mousse

    Everyone loves food served in an ice cream cone. I’ve seen more, and more treats served this way on Instagram, so I figured that serving up some chocolate mousse in sprinkle coated ice cream cones would be fantastic!

    These are perfect to hand out at a Halloween party with little ones. I know they all want ice cream, but these won’t melt and make a mess. Heck, you can even freeze them and make them more ice cream like if you really want. They will freeze and thaw beautifully.

    Halloween Sprinkles

    Making your own mix of sprinkles is fun, but it’s so much easier to get a package of a mix from Sweets & Treats. I used their Dragon Dreams mix on these cones, and I loved the mix of purples and green.

    To add the sprinkles to the cones, I simply put melted chocolate chips around the edge of the cone and then rolled it in the sprinkles. So easy and so pretty. Don’tcha think?

    One word of advice: You must fill them and serve them on the same day. These are, after all, they are just ice cream cones and the mousse will make them soft if they sit for too long.

    I made the mousse and divided it into two piping bags. I reserved one in the fridge to firm up and keep cool. The other one I used to pipe out the swirl on a cookie sheet and popped it into the freezer for a few hours. When you’re ready to serve them, fill the cones and add the frozen top. Of course, you can use any flavor of Mousse for these.

    Like a Lemon Cheesecake Mousse, or try this seasonal Gingersnap and Sweet Potato Mousse, and for an extra special adult treat this Champagne Mousse looks amazing!
