Having already created an ice cream cone out of a giant chocolate chip cookie, not to mention making savory cones with Thanksgiving and mac and cheese flavors, Nick Chipman of the DudeFoods blog has now created a Rice Krispies treat ice cream cone. While it might sound like someone simply filled a regular ice cream cone with cereal, the food blogger essentially made a cone-shaped Rice Krispies treat you can place a scoop of ice cream on top of.

To make your own, all you really need to do is form the treat when it is fresh and warm and mold it into the appropriate shape. He waited about 15 minutes for it to cool before eating it with chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream.
