Mousse-Filled Witches' Hats

• 1 3/4 cups heavy whipping cream, divided
• 1 cup milk chocolate chips
• 1/2 teaspoon shortening
• 4 (1 ounce) semi-sweet chocolate baking squares, chopped
• 1 (4 3/4 ounce) package chocolate ice cream cones (sugar cone)
• halloween candy sprinkles
• 12 thin chocolate wafers (2 1/4-inch diameter)

1. For mousse, in a small saucepan, bring 1/2 cup cream to a boil; remove from the heat. Stir in chocolate chips until smooth. Transfer to a bowl; cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
2. In a small mixing bowl, beat the remaining cream until stiff peaks form; fold into the chocolate mixture. Cover and refrigerate.
3. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt semisweet chocolate and shortening; stir until smooth. Dip pointed tips of ice cream cones a third of the way into melted chocolate; roll in sprinkles.
4. Refrigerate until set.
5. Just before serving, spoon mousse into cones. Top each with a chocolate wafer. Invert onto a serving platter.
