FAQ
Do you have questions about Kit Kat ice cream cones? Here are some of the most commonly asked questions about this Kit kat ice cream cone recipe.
Whipped cream makes the ice cream softer and scoopable.
Stiff peaks mean that when you pull away the mixer, it leaves behind peaks of whipped cream that stand up with no bend to the peaks.
That's easy. The one you love the most. All cones work great for this recipe.
