4.9 from 101 reviews

Reese’s Campfire Cones are a fun and easy dessert perfect for camping or backyard gatherings. Waffle cones are filled with layers of mini marshmallows, chocolate chips, Reese’s Mini Peanut Butter Cups, and Reese’s Pieces, then wrapped in foil and heated until gooey and melted. These sweet treats can be cooked over a campfire, grill, or in the oven for a delicious, melty, and nostalgic dessert.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • Waffle cones (1 per serving)
  • Mini marshmallows (approximately ¼ to ⅓ cup per cone)
  • Chocolate chips (about 2 tablespoons per cone)
  • Reese’s Mini Peanut Butter Cups (2-3 per cone)
  • Reese’s Pieces (2 tablespoons per cone)

Instructions

  1. Fill the cone base: Fill the bottom ¼ to ⅓ of each waffle cone with mini marshmallows. This forms the base layer to prevent fillings from falling through.
  2. Layer the fillings: Add a layer of chocolate chips, followed by Reese’s Mini Peanut Butter Cups and Reese’s Pieces. Then add another layer of mini marshmallows. Gently press down each layer to pack the cone without squishing the contents.
  3. Wrap the cones: Wrap each filled cone tightly in aluminum foil. Ensure the top where the ingredients are filled is securely covered to avoid spillage. Fold up the bottom and wrap the sides completely.
  4. Oven method: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the foil-wrapped cones on a baking sheet and bake for 10 to 15 minutes until the fillings are melted and gooey.
  5. Campfire or grill method: Place the wrapped cones over hot campfire coals or grill grates. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, turning occasionally to toast the cone gently and melt the fillings evenly.
  6. Cool and serve: Carefully remove the cones from heat and let them cool for 1 to 2 minutes. Then unwrap the foil and enjoy the warm, melty dessert.

Notes

  • Be careful when handling the hot foil-wrapped cones to avoid burns.
  • You can customize the fillings by adding other candies or nuts as desired.
  • If baking in the oven, keep an eye on the cones to prevent burning the waffle exterior.
  • These cones are best enjoyed warm right after cooking for the gooey texture.
  • Make sure the cone is sealed well in foil to keep the fillings from leaking out during cooking.
