INSTRUCTIONS
- Step 1:
- Begin by filling each of the 12 sugar or waffle cones with mini marshmallows and chocolate chips. Make sure to pack them generously for a gooey and chocolaty treat.
- Step 2:
- Once filled, wrap each cone in aluminum foil. This will help them heat evenly and prevent any mess.

- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit or prepare your grill to a medium-high heat. Place the wrapped cones in the oven or on the grill.
- Step 4:
- Heat the cones for 7 to 10 minutes. This will melt the chocolate chips and marshmallows to create a delicious, gooey filling.
- Step 5:
- Carefully remove the cones from the oven or grill using tongs. Let them cool slightly before unwrapping to avoid burns.
- Step 6:

Serving and Storage Tips
Serve these S’Mores Campfire Cones warm for the best experience. They are perfect for campfire gatherings, backyard barbecues, or even indoor treats made in the oven. Pair them with a glass of cold milk or a hot cup of cocoa. If you have leftovers, let them cool completely, then store them in an airtight container. Reheat wrapped in foil in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 5 minutes or until warmed through.
Helpful Notes
For an added twist, try adding some crushed graham crackers or a drizzle of caramel sauce inside the cones. You can also experiment with different types of chocolate, such as white chocolate chips or dark chocolate chunks. If you’re making these over a campfire, use a long-handled roasting stick to hold the wrapped cones over the fire, rotating occasionally for even heating.
Tips from Well-Known Chefs
Chef Alton Brown suggests using high-quality chocolate for the best melting experience. Chef Giada De Laurentiis recommends adding a sprinkle of sea salt to balance the sweetness. Chef Bobby Flay advises toasting the mini marshmallows slightly before filling the cones for an extra smoky flavor.
