Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and place the oven rack in the lower position. Wrap a piece of foil over a 12 cup muffin tin. Cut a small x in the foil in the center of each cup. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, vegetable oil, buttermilk, sugars, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Add the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda. Stir in just until combined.
  4. Stir in the hot water.
  5. Gently press an ice cream cone into a slit in the foil in the muffin tin cup. Repeat with the remaining cones so you have 1 cone in each muffin tin cup.
  6. Divide the batter evenly between 12 ice cream cones, filling them almost 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
  8. Transfer to a wire rack and allow them to cool completely.
  9. To make the frosting, beat butter with a mixer – hand or stand – on medium for 2-3 minutes.
  10. Add 1 ½ cups of the powdered sugar 1/2 a cup at a time, and beat until well-combined.
  11. Add vanilla and a pinch of salt and beat until well-combined.
  12. Add 2 tablespoons of cream, and beat until combined.
  13. If necessary, continue adding powdered sugar 1/4 cup at a time or cream 1 teaspoon at a time until you reach desired consistency.
  14. Add a swirl of frosting on top of each cupcake.
  15. Top with sprinkles before serving.

Notes

  • Cones: I don't recommend using sugar cones or waffle cones because of the pointed tip. The flat bottom on the cake cones let them stand up easily.
  • Vegetable oil: Or any neutral oil. If you'd prefer to use butter, you will need 1/3 cup butter, melted.
  • Buttermilk: If you don't have buttermilk, you can use this recipe to make your own buttermilk substitute.
  • Flour: It's important to properly measure the flour. Weighing it is the most accurate means of measurement. If not, you will need to sift the flour to avoid packing it.
  • Butter: I use salted butter. If you're using unsalted butter, add a pinch or two of salt to the frosting.
