Strawberry Crunch cones are a spinoff of the classic strawberry shortcake ice cream bars. They’re a waffle cone filled with a no bake cheesecake filling, fresh strawberry glaze, and fresh diced strawberries. The waffle cone is covered in white chocolate and a strawberry crunch topping. They’re oh so delicious and easy to make, there are just a few steps involved in the process and it’s so worth all the steps!

How to Make No Bake Cheesecake
For these strawberry crunch cheesecake stuffed waffle cones I cheated and used the already made cheesecake filling, but I do have a recipe for a no bake cheesecake filling on my Easter Cheesecake Cones. The cheesecake filling can be made a day in advance, but I used the Philadelphia No Bake Cheesecake Filling which I get at my local Walmart.

Now let’s assemble the strawberry crunch cheesecake cones!
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt your white chocolate per the package directions. I do 30 seconds, stir, and then 15-second increments until fully melted. Make sure to stir well each time.
Once your chocolate is melted dip the top portion of the waffle cone into the chocolate and gently tap off any excess chocolate.
Then roll the white chocolate covered cone in the strawberry crunch topping. Make sure to coat all of the white chocolate with strawberry crunch topping.
Place on parchment-lined baking sheet and set to harden. About 10-15 mins. You can speed this process up by placing the baking sheet in the fridge for 5 mins.
Place the cheesecake filling into a Ziploc or piping bag. This makes placing it in the cone easier. Cut off the end.
Once your cones are ready, fill the cone halfway with with cheesecake filling. Add a small spoonful of strawberry glaze, and a few chunks of strawberry.
Fill the rest of the waffle cone with cheesecake filling and repeat previous steps.
Add some strawberry crunch topping to the top of the waffle cone.
Drizzle the cone with leftover melted white chocolate and add some more of the strawberry crunch over the drizzle.
Serve immediately or store in the fridge until ready to serve. Eat soon after making since the cone will get soggy from the strawberry glaze and fresh berries.

I haven’t tried this yet, but a suggestion to combat the cone getting soggy, I think would be to pour and lime the inside of the cone with white chocolate and letting it harden before adding the fillings, that’s way it’s a barrier between the cone and filling.
