I have always wanted one of those special appliances for making those thin crispy cookies perfect for ice cream cones and edible bowls. I found one at my local Gourmet Shop and I am in love!

I used a Krumkake machine from Chef’s Choice (Kitchen Gallery has more if you live locally, if not you can find them here).

Whip up this simple batter straight from the included recipe book:

Favorite German Krumkake Recipe

2/3 cup water

1/4 cup butter

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 – 1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup flour

1 egg

Boil the water. While it is cooling, add 1/4 cup butter to water and stir to melt the butter completely. Add 1/2 cup of sugar to the the water while still warm and stir to dissolve. Allow to cool.

Add one cup of flour and 1 egg to water mixture. Mix thoroughly while adding vanilla. Makes about a dozen cones or bowls. Use about 2 tablespoons per krumkake.

Pour batter on the heated griddle.

Close lid and cook about 90 seconds.

I wanted to made edible bowls so I found two bowl shaped items, one that fit inside the other. While the Krumkake is still piping hot place in the bowl.

Allow to cool slightly and remove.

I love these bowls!

It also came with a tool to make cones.

So cool!

Ready for some ice cream?

  1. Will be making these cones for a one year old’s party. Small for their hands, and a few morsels of ruit. They will be happy! Thank you for the inspiration

  2. We made these yesterday and they are fabulous! We have a 40 year old Nordic Ware non-electric Krumkake maker (you place it over the burner on your stove)and it worked perfectly. Will make these often!!!

  3. Can these be made ahead and frozen? If so, how long will they keep in the freezer?

  4. This is ingenious. Now know what to do to vamp up my ice cream treats. anyone want a treat….. thanks to Skip to my Lou

  5. YUMMOOOOO!! I just made this recipe for the first time. I don’t have a waffle cone maker, so I used a pizzelle maker. They were delicious!

  6. I have a question…would you be able to use this recipe using a regular waffle maker (the kind with the large holes)????
