Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

2 tablespoons sugar

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup finely chopped pecans

1/4 cup caramel sauce

6 ice cream cones

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cone Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the mixture resembles wet sand.

    Form the Base: Gently press the crumb mixture into the bottom of each ice cream cone to form a firm base. This will help prevent filling from leaking out.

      Make the Cheesecake Filling: Using an electric mixer, beat the softened cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined and creamy.

        Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture until fully incorporated.

          Fill the Cones: Spoon the cheesecake filling into each prepared ice cream cone, filling them generously to the top.

            Prepare Praline Topping: In a small pan over medium heat, toast the chopped pecans for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently until golden brown. Drizzle caramel sauce over the warm pecans and mix until coated.

              Top the Cones: Spoon the caramel-coated pecans onto the filled cheesecake cones, allowing some to spill over for an indulgent look.

                Chill: Place the filled cones upright in a standing position (you can use a muffin tin for support) and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to set the filling.

                  Prep Time: 20 minutes | Total Time: 1 hour 20 minutes | Servings: 6 cones

                    - Presentation Tips: Serve the cones upright on a decorative platter and drizzle additional caramel sauce over them just before serving. Garnish with a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs for added texture and visual appeal. Enjoy your delightful Cheesecake Praline Cones!
