Kimi's Notes:

I got this recipe on Incredible Recipes...so unusual and fun to make with the kids. Take them into you student's school party. Make them at home and make them when you do your Easter crafts.

 

Directions

1
Prepare cake mix as instructed on the box
2
Cut of bottom off of sugar cones and place in a 12-ct cup cake pan. Drop a mini cupcake liner down into the cone to catch spills.
3
Pour batter into the cone half way up. Bake according to package for cup cakes.
4
Dye coconut and set aside
5
cool cupcakes..when cool remove mini liner and place cupcakes back in cupcake pan till ready to decorate
6
Frost cupcakes, top with coconut & jelly beans. Cut a licorice string and make a handle.
7
Hint...you can braid 3 stands of licorice for handle

This is really a cute idea. Have you ever tried to make it with the regular cones with the flat bottoms (not the sugar cones) Would they work as well as the sugar cones or not??? My daughter and I want to make these soon.
