how to make Reese’s Campfire Cones
Ingredients :
- Waffle cones
- Mini marshmallows
- Chocolate chips
- Reese’s Mini Peanut Butter Cups
- Reese’s Pieces
Directions :
- Fill the bottom of each cone (about ¼ – ⅓) with mini marshmallows.
- Layer in the chocolate chips, Reese’s Mini Peanut Butter Cups, Reese’s Pieces, and more mini marshmallows until the cone is filled as much as possible. Gently pack the layers down as you go.
- Wrap each cone individually in aluminum foil, making sure they are tightly sealed. Begin by covering the top of the cone where the ingredients are to prevent spills. Then fold up the bottom and wrap the sides.
