Make Cookie "Scoops"

Using a pastry brush, coat the bottoms of two store-bought meringue cookies with melted chocolate chips and stick them together.

Seal Your Note

Coat the top inside of the sugar cone with melted chocolate, then set the meringue cookie "scoop" on top. Let the chocolate set before giving or eating.
