Koala ice cream cone ingredients

  • 100’s and 1000’s
  • ice cream cones – we used waffle cones but you should use what your family loves the most!
  • vanilla ice cream – doesn’t need to be fancy or expensive
  • For the koala ears: mini Oreo cookies – Oreo makes tiny versions of their cookies and we need those. If you can’t get those you could use large, round chocolate chips
  • For the koala nose: Maltesers
  • For the koala eyes: mini M&Ms (we used the brown ones!)
  • Optional – mint leaf lollies to mimic eucalyptus leaves

Koala ice cream cone method

Step 1. Get all your ingredients ready so you can whip up your koala ice cream cones quickly. Because … ice cream melts!

Step 2. Pop two scoops of ice cream into the cone using an ice-cream scoop. Now work quickly. You can smooth out the ice cream with a butter knife if you want a neat surface, but we like our guys a bit rustic and quick. Koala ice cream cones here we come!

Step 3. Dip the top of the ice cream into a bowl of 100s and 1000s. Just a light touch because you only want the top of the koala’s head covered.

Step 4. Pop on your mini Oreo ears. Push them in firmly so they stay put. For a koala, they work best on the uppermost sides of the top ice cream scoop. (And a little higher if you want to make a teddy bear someday!)

Step 5. Add the mini M&M eyes and a Malteser nose using our photos as a guide. The eyes work well if they are set quite wide, so note that. They look cute even if they are a bit wonky, so don’t try too hard for perfection. Try for personality instead!

Step 6. Add a button or two to get that formal koala look. You could even add a mint leaf lolly if you want to get very fancy and koala-ish.

 

Variations:

Dip your ice cream in melted chocolate instead of 100s and 1000s. Try some different sprinkles. Make a chocolate ice cream version with a (full-sized M&M nose and light coloured mini M&M eyes – so they stand out.) Make a strawberry ice cream version for pink koalas!
