Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

2 tablespoons sugar

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

1/4 cup praline pecans, chopped (plus extra for topping)

12 mini cone-shaped ice cream cones

Whipped cream for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cone Base: In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until crumbly. Press about a tablespoon of the mixture into the bottom of each mini ice cream cone to form a crumb crust. Set aside.

    Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

      Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no white streaks remain. This will give the cheesecake a light and fluffy texture.

        Add the Praline Pecan: Fold in the chopped praline pecans into the cheesecake mixture, reserving a few for topping.

          Fill the Cones: Using a piping bag or a spoon, fill each mini cone with the cheesecake mixture, ensuring you pack it down gently to avoid any air pockets. Fill them to just below the edge.

            Top and Chill: If desired, add a dollop of whipped cream on top of each cheesecake cone and sprinkle with the reserved praline pecans for garnish. Place the filled cones in a small container or upright on a plate.

              Refrigerate: Allow the cones to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to set the cheesecake filling.

                Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled, serve these delightful mini cheesecake praline cones as a fun and tasty dessert for parties or gatherings!
