• Blueberries
• Cutting Board
• Knife
• Measuring Cup (microwave safe)
• Parchment Paper
• Spoon
• Strawberries
• Waffle Cones (12)

Step 2: Melt the White Chocolate
• Pour approximately 6 oz (or 3/4 cup) of white chocolate chips into your microwave safe measuring cup.
• Microwave for 30 second intervals until soft.
• Stir with your spoon.
Note
• Before melting the chocolate, make sure the base of the measuring cup is wide enough for the top of your cones to easily fit inside.

Step 4 of 6
Step 4: Dip Your Cones
• One by one, dip the top of each cone into the melted white chocolate and spin if needed to coat it.
• Gently shake off the drips and place it standing up on your parchment paper.
• Let the chocolate dry and harden by sitting out on the table. You can also slide them with the parchment paper onto a plate and put them in the refrigerator for 15 -20 mins.
Note
If you want to add another tasty element, try rolling each cone in sprinkles right after dipping in your white chocolate. Then dry as normal. Yum!

Step 6: Fill 'em Up

Note
If you want add a little something extra, add a few "surprise" chocolate candies or white chocolate chips to the very bottom of your cones before the adding the fruit.
