These hats are so adorable! I am planning on having my kids make them for New Year's. Consider making them for birthday parties as well, just change the decorations.
From Disney's Family Fun Magazine comes a really adorable chocolate covered ice cream cone idea that you can do with kids. Use these to hold your favorite ice-cream on New Year's Eve, but first they'll decorate the table!
New Year's Eve Chocolate Covered Ice Cream Cone Hats
Ingredients
Sugar cones
Ice cream
12-ounce DOVE Chocolate (6 - 2 ounce Chef Series bars) or any high quality dark chocolate, broken up
Icing: Make this easy. Buy the Wilton's icing writers. They come in multiple colors and are easy to use
Shoestring licorice
Mini-nonpareils
Instructions
1. Spread melted chocolate chips over each sugar cone with a small spatula. Let the chocolate harden for about 1 hour (or 20 minutes in the refrigerator).
2. For chinstraps, use icing to attach the ends of a fruit strip or a length of shoestring licorice to the inside of each cone.
3. Use icing to decorate the hats and attach nonpareils.
