I am only adding this because I think sometimes we/I get caught up in the fancy, super hard, new recipe and forget about the easy but still yummy things we can make. So, here is your reminder ...
1 cake mix any flavor (or from scratch)
1 can frosting (or from scratch, this is a recipe I use minus the mint)
ice-cream cones
cupcake liners
decorations
Make cake as directed. Fill cupcake liners 2/3 full and place an ice-cream cone on top of the batter. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Cool cupcakes, remove liners, frost and decorate.
