Chick N’ Cone Copycat Recipe

These handheld chicken and waffle cones are a copycat version of the wildly popular Chick N’ Cone restaurant. Chicken tenders fried to crispy perfection and tossed in homemade sauces like Kickin’ Ranch and Yella BBQ and stuffed into ice cream shop waffle cones. These are the ultimate combination of sweet and savory and perfect for a brunch! Keep reading to see how you can make this Chick N’ Cone copycat recipe at home…

I have been drooling over these cones for probably two years now. I see them posted all over social media and I’ve been crossing my fingers hoping they make their way to Atlanta but no such luck. So, I decided it was time I learn how to make these. After a bunch of taste-testing, this Chick N’ Cone copycat recipe was created!

Hopefully one day I will have the luxury to go grab one at a moments notice, but until then, we are making these homemade and it’s worth the effort. I created recipes to make some of their sauces from scratch too, although they have about a dozen (ranging from sweet to spicy) I choose my favorites that also seem to be their most popular.

I know this sounds like a lot of work, but fear not! I have provided lots of make-ahead solutions below!

To save time, I made my sauces a day ahead of time so that all I had to worry about was frying the chicken. Easy! You can also opt to buy pre-made good quality sauces instead.

Time Saving Make-Ahead Options:

• Both sauces can be made ahead and stored in a air-tight container in the refrigerator. Just be sure to heat the sauce before tossing the chicken as it will make the dish cold.
• You can prepare your seasoned flour dredge and store it in a ziplock bag in the pantry until ready to use.
• You can prepare your egg wash (egg + milk + hot sauce) a day ahead and store in an air-tight container.

Let’s talk about this adorable Chick N’ Cone wrapper!! This is nothing more than the a document I created in Word by copying and pasting their logo onto an orange background and printing.

I wrapped the cones ahead of time (it took a little measuring and cutting attempts before getting it right), sealed it closed with a dap of glue (being sure it only touched paper-to-paper), then gently placed the cones in a Ziplock bag until serving.

These chicken and waffle cones are a good meal anytime of day, but I visualize these being especially adorable for a brunch with friends! Mimosas and Chick N’ Cones anyone?
