Ingredients:

For the cones:

• 16 ounces cream-filled cookies (vanilla or chocolate, or wafer cookies)
• 12 waffle-style cones

Instructions:

1. Preparing the Cones:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Melt chocolate in the microwave at 30-second intervals until smooth.

• Process cookies into crumbs and dip the cones into the crumbs or sprinkle them onto the cones.

2. Making the Peach Cobbler:

• Spray a 9×13 baking dish and pour in the sliced peaches with juice.
• Sprinkle the dry cake mix over the peaches, then drizzle melted butter over the top.
• Bake for 45 to 55 minutes.

3. Preparing the Cheesecake Filling:

• In a bowl, beat heavy whipping cream until thick with stiff peaks.
• In another bowl, mix softened cream cheese, confectioner’s sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice until smooth.
• Gently fold whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture.

4. Assembling the Cones:

• Scoop alternating spoons of cheesecake and peach cobbler into each cone.
• Top with a drizzle of chocolate and a sprinkle of crushed cookies.

Tips:

• Cookie Variations: Experiment with different types of cream-filled cookies or wafer cookies to customize the flavor profile of your cones.
• Consistency: Ensure the cheesecake filling is well mixed and has a smooth, creamy texture for optimal flavor and consistency.
• Assembly: Take care when assembling the cones to distribute the cheesecake and peach cobbler filling evenly for a balanced taste in every bite.
• Decoration: Have fun decorating the cones with extra drizzles of chocolate, crushed cookies, or fresh fruit for added visual appeal and flavor.
