Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 pint vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add flour and salt; whisk until batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Heat a waffle cone maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease with nonstick spray if needed.
- Pour about 2 tablespoons of batter onto the center of the waffle cone maker. Close lid and cook until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
- Immediately remove the hot waffle and roll it into a cone shape using a cone roller or by hand (careful, it's hot). Hold for a few seconds until it holds its shape. Place on a wire rack to cool completely.
- Repeat with remaining batter, greasing the iron as needed.
- Once cones are cool, fill each with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Serve immediately.
Tips
- If you don't have a cone roller, you can shape the cone by hand using a folded kitchen towel to protect your fingers.
- Store unfilled cones in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter.
