    How to Make Upside Down Ice Cream Cupcakes

    Even though we use chocolate cake mix to make our cupcakes, you can use vanilla, strawberry, or any other flavor your family loves

    Planning a fun Ice Cream themed party? These cupcakes use wafers for the ice cream cones and are so cute!  Sugar cookies that look like ice cream cones will definitely be a hit of the party! 

    Even if you are just craving a yummy ice cream treat, our skillet cookies topped with ice cream are simply amazing!  These little bites of warm gooey goodness are so easy to make! 

    Expert Tips, Ingredient List and Suggestions for Recipe Success

    Cake mix - you can use a cake mix to make the cupcakes, your own favorite homemade recipe, or you can even use store-bought cupcakes.

    Sweet cream butter - this adds an extra creaminess to the frosting.

    Step by Step Directions

    Cupcake Directions:

    • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
    • Follow the directions on the back of the box of the cake mix
    • Scoop the batter into the cupcake liners and fill about ¾ way full
    • Bake in the oven for 21 minutes
    • Allow to cool completely

    Frosting Directions:

    • Using a standing mixer, beat the butter on medium speed until creamy
    • Mix in the powdered sugar, heavy whipping cream, and vanilla extract until combined and smooth
    • If the frosting is too thin, mix in ¼ cup more of powdered sugar
    • Fold in the sprinkles
    • Once the frosting is combined and smooth, using the ice cream scooper, scoop some frosting and scoop it onto the top of the cupcake
    • Using a microwave safe bowl, melt the Ghirardelli chocolate until melted and smooth
    • Pour into a squeeze bottle
    • Pipe the chocolate onto the frosting to look like fudge
    • Sprinkle some confetti sprinkles onto the chocolate and top with a ice cream cone and cherry
    • Enjoy!
