Bubble Waffle Ice Cream

I’m not gonna lie, it took me longer to clean the waffle maker than it did to make this entire recipe AND enjoy my giant Bubble Waffle Cone.

But will that keep me from making these again
and again
and again?

Oh, heck no.

Matter of fact, I’ll be looking for excuses to make these things.

First up, Thanksgiving.

Because the holidays don’t have to be all about pumpkin pie and turkeys.

here’s what you’ll need to do

Put flour, sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl and zhuzh it around with your fingers until incorporated.

In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, milk, water, extra virgin olive oil and vanilla.

Add your bowl of wet ingredients to the bowl of dry ingredients and mix until the lumps are gone and you have a nice silky batter.

Spoon batter onto bubble waffle maker and cook according to bubble waffle maker manufacturer directions.

Remove waffle and IMMEDIATELY form into a cone shape and place in a cup or cone holder to set.

Pro Tip: Waiting even a few seconds to do this because you’re having a kitchen dance party will cause the waffle cone to crack and fall apart when you finally try to shape it.

Once waffle cone is cool, add ice cream and as many outlandish toppings as you’d like.
This isn’t your typical ice cream cone, it’s a party - so GO ALL OUT.

I like vanilla ice cream topped with a drizzle of peanut butter and chocolate sauce, a sprinkle of Maldon salt and a heaping pile of whooping cream.

Oh, and adding rainbow sprinkles is everything.

Big thanks to @thekitchn for guidance on making the perfect golden, Nilla wafer-smelling (and tasting) batter.
