Shape Waffle Cones: Slightly dampen each waffle cone and reshape into a taco shell. This takes about 5 minutes.
Fill Taco Shells: Scoop about ¼ cup of vanilla ice cream into each shell, packing down firmly. This takes around 10 minutes.
Dip in Chocolate: Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth (1-2 minutes). Dip filled end of each taco into chocolate.
Add Toppings: Sprinkle chopped peanuts or alternative toppings over the chocolate-coated area immediately for better adhesion, taking about 5 minutes.
Freeze and Serve: Place tacos on parchment paper and freeze for at least 30 minutes until chocolate is firm.
