Cone Cake Christmas Trees

Sugar cones filled with batter, baked till springy, then trimmed flat. Topped with thick vanilla buttercream and Fudge Stripes for crunch. Flipped, crumb-coated, then piped green frosting stars shape festive trees. Variations include swapping fudge stripes for ginger snaps, adding a hint of almond extract to batter. Bakes range 12-17 minutes depending on oven hot spots. Cool cones fully before trimming to keep structure. Frost layers seal crumbs and improve final pipeline. Visual and tactile cues emphasized over times for best results.
