More About This Recipe

  • These cute-as-can-be mini cones are no-melt, bite-sized version of a banana split! I’m all about the food on the 4th of July, but coming up with desserts that won’t melt in the summer heat can be a little challenging. Everyone seems to be craving ice cream sweets! Like banana splits. Which just happens to be one of my all-time faves. So I came up with a no-melt, no-mess, super cute split, all patriotic and mini. A mini banana split in a cone. A CONE. Yeah, I’m kinda patting myself on the back here. And the cone is filled with… wait for it…Yogurt! Cool, smooth, refreshing strawberry yogurt. It’s like liquid ice cream. Mmmm. You can use any flavor, but I wanted my cones to have that banana split flavor so I went with strawberry. The strawberry Yoplait™ Yogurt, the creamy vanilla frosting, the chocolate Sixlet™ candy and the banana all make up the perfect banana split bite in an adorable mini ice cream cone It’s bursting with star spangled sweetness for your 4th of July bash!
