How do you crisp waffle cones?

The best way to achieve the desired crispiness of a waffle cone is to start with a hot waffle iron. The iron needs to be set to a high enough temperature to brown the batter on the outside of the waffles (which takes about 5–10 minutes). Once the iron is up to temperature, you can start making waffles. The most important thing to remember for a crisp waffle cone is to open the iron as soon as the indicator lights turn off. The iron will stay very hot for a few minutes, so be careful.

The key to making the perfect crisp waffle cone is a hot enough temperature and the right amount of time. Heat your oven to 350 degrees, and make sure the cones are allowed to heat thoroughly before putting any batter inside. Depending on the batter you are using, you may need to adjust the batter by adding more liquid if it is thicker.
