Time 8h25m

Yield Makes 2 cups (enough for 8 single-scoop cones)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 very ripe large mangoes, 4 very ripe bananas, or 8 very ripe kiwis, peeled, cut into 3/4-inch pieces, and frozen on a parchment-lined baking sheet
Pinch of kosher salt
2 tablespoons agave nectar (if using mango or kiwi)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (if using mango)
6 ounces high-quality white chocolate, such as Valrhona
8 sugar cones
Chocolate and rainbow sprinkles and nonpareils, and finely chopped nuts, such as pistachios, for decorating
White-Chocolate Magic Shell(optional)

Steps:

  • Pulse frozen fruit and salt in a food processor until smooth. Add agave and lime juice (if using mango) or just agave (if using kiwi); pulse until thoroughly combined. Transfer to a freezer-safe container, cover surface, and freeze until firm, at least 2 hours and up to 1 week.
  • Melt chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pot of boiling water; let cool slightly. Dip tops of cones in melted chocolate and sprinkle with candies, nuts, or a combination. Freeze until set, at least 5 minutes and up to 1 day.
  • Temper purees in refrigerator until slightly softened, about 15 minutes. Scoop into cones, spoon magic shell over top, and serve immediately.

Tips:

- For a refreshing and light dessert, use frozen fruit. - To make the cones ahead of time, simply fill them with fruit and wrap them tightly in plastic wrap. Store them in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. When you're ready to serve, thaw them at room temperature for about 30 minutes. - If you don't have waffle cones, you can use sugar cones or even ice cream cones. - For a more decadent dessert, drizzle the cones with melted chocolate or caramel sauce. - You can also add a scoop of ice cream or sorbet to the cones for a truly tropical treat.

Conclusion:

Tropical fruit cones are a delicious and easy dessert that is perfect for summer parties or gatherings. They are also a great way to get your daily dose of fruits. With so many different fruits to choose from, you can create a variety of different flavor combinations. So get creative and enjoy!
