   In a medium bowl, microwave chocolate and vegetable oil for about 1 minute. Stir every 20 seconds until smooth.

   Place ice cream cones on a small lined baking sheet. (Make sure you have cleared space in your freezer for the sheet.). Drizzle about 1 teaspoon melted chocolate into the bottom of each ice cream cone. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes, to set chocolate.

4. Step 4

   One at a time, dip tops of cones in melted chocolate mixture (you may need to warm in your microwave for 15-20 more seconds to thin slightly).

5. Step 5

   Immediately roll into chopped nuts. If necessary, sprinkle nuts over top to coat evenly.

6. Step 6

   Place the cones back into the short glasses, onto the baking sheet, and into your freezer.
