Campfire Cones

One of my favorite parts of summer is going camping. Yet for some reason it's been a few years since I've been! I love the great outdoors and sleeping in a tent. Or a trailer, if I have the option, let's be honest! I can't wait for my kids to be old enough to go on their first camping trip. I have so many fun memories of camping with my family.

I love sitting around the campfire with everyone when we're out camping. Whether we're roasting hotdogs, roasting marshmallows for s'mores, or just visiting, it's my favorite place to be on a camping trip. I'd have to say the s'more part is the icing on the cake for a campfire night! Recently I found this fun camping treat that I'm so excited to try on our next camping trip. It's that time of year, so this is a perfect treat for the next time you're getting ready to go camping! Everything inside the cone melts together but the cone stays crunchy. Heaven!

These would work great for a family reunion, girls camp, scout camp, etc.

(Not much of a camper? That's ok! You can make these over a grill if you have one and have a party of your own!)

  • sugar cones
  • peanut butter
  • mini marshmallows
  • chocolate chip
  • bananas
  • aluminum foil
Other ingredient options I think would be good to put in these:
  • caramel
  • M&M's
  • nuts
  • coconut
Here's what to do:
Instructions will vary, depending on the ingredients you use! The marshmallows are going to bind everything else together so try really hard to use those.
  1. Chop up the bananas and get mini marshmallows and chocolate chips ready to go.
  2. Spread some peanut butter on the inside of the cone. Then put in the bananas, marshmallows, and chocolate chips.
  3. Wrap the whole cone in aluminum foil and safely put it over the campfire near a warm spot on the edge where you can easily take it back out. Or if you're using a grill, set it on the rack above the hot coals. (The campsite grills are perfect for this.)
  4. Unwrap the cone and check to see if everything is nice and gooey and melted. Time to dig in!
