Steps:

  • For the Cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

  • In the bowl of a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add the melted butter.
  • With the mixer on low, gradually add the sugar. Mix until thoroughly combined (about 2 to 3 minutes).

  • Add the vanilla and mix.
  • In a measuring cup, place the milk and lemon juice (or vinegar).
  • Add the flour mixture and milk mixture in 3 separate steps, starting and ending with the flour mixture.

  • Remove the cupcake pan from the oven, and allow the cupcakes to cool for about 10 minutes in the pan. Remove the cupcakes and allow them to cool completely on a drying rack.
  • While the cupcakes cool, make the frosting.
  • For each frosting flavor, use the following method: In the bowl of mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the salt, flavorings, and cream/milk.
  • Place the chocolate and strawberry frosting flavors in separate bowls. Smooth the top and cover with plastic wrap. Chill until firm.
  • For the vanilla, keep about 1/2 of the frosting at room temperature, and chill the rest.
  • While the frosting chills, make the ganache.
  • Warm the cream until just about to boil.
  • Pour the cream over the chopped chocolate. Let it stand for a minute or two.
  • Mix the chocolate and cream until smooth and shiny.
  • To assemble the cupcakes, put a thing layer of vanilla frosting over the top of each cupcake.
  • Using a small ice cream scooper, place a single scoop of each flavor frosting on the top of each cupcake.
  • Drizzle the scoops with ganache.
  • Place a cherry on top.

Time 1h30m

Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 14

24 wafer ice cream cones
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups sugar
3 large eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup milk
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups rainbow sprinkles (not nonpareils)
2 cups vanilla buttercream (homemade or store-bought)
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 teaspoon coconut oil
24 maraschino cherries, drained

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the ice cream cones in 2 cupcake cone baking racks set over 1 parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Place the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition until blended. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour alternating with the milk and mix until incorporated. Beat in the baking powder, salt and vanilla. Fold in 1 cup of the rainbow sprinkles.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the cones with an ice cream scoop, filling 2/3 to completely full. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool for 30 minutes.
  • Transfer the buttercream to a piping bag fitted with a round tip or a large ziptop bag with the corner snipped off. Pipe a swirl of the vanilla buttercream on each cooled cupcake cone. Chill the frosted cupcakes in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • Microwave the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwavable bowl on high in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted. Allow to cool slightly. Pour 1/2 teaspoon of the mixture in the center of each cupcake, allowing the chocolate to drip down the frosting. Working quickly, top each with a few rainbow sprinkles and a maraschino cherry.
