Lady and The Tramp Spaghetti Cookies
Lady and the Tramp is still one of my all-time favorite Disney movies! I’m not sure if it’s because I grew up watching Disney movies regularly or if it’s the Spaghetti dinner at Tony’s, whatever it is, I still love watching the movie today!
So of course, I knew we had to try to recreate that iconic moment from the movie with some yummy Lady and the Tramp Spaghetti Cookies!
Of course, if you are making these cookies, you definitely have to pick up the movie to watch!
Ingredients Needed:
- When it comes to baking, it's best to use unsalted sweet cream butter. That way you can control the salt content in your recipe.
- Powdered sugar is a staple when it comes to making frosting for your cookies.
- There is nothing like using pure vanilla extract in your cookies. It seems to just be a must.
- Remember when measuring out your all-purpose flour, you must do the scoop with a spoon and level with a knife method. Do not just scoop the flour out with your measuring cup.
- Cream of tartar is one of those spices that when you use it in baking, you will be asking yourself what I taste and then you'll wonder why you don't use it more.
- When you are using baking soda in a recipe, make sure that it's fresh and not expired so you get the results you are looking for.

Ingredients
Ingredients for the Cookies
- 1 C unsalted sweet cream butter room temperature
- 1 ½ C powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 2 ½ C flour scooped with a spoon and leveled with a knife
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- Royal icing:
- 3 egg whites
- 1 teaspoon cream of tarter
Ingredients for the Royal Icing
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 4 C powder sugar
- Red and ivory food coloring
- 1 package Ferrero Rocher’s
Instructions
Directions for Making the Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Using a standing mixer, cream together the butter, powder sugar, vanilla and egg together until creamy and combined.
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, cream of tarter and baking soda
- Gradually mix in the flour mixture into the wet ingredients until combined and a dough forms
- Once the dough is formed, sprinkle about 3 tablespoons of flour onto a cutting board and place the dough onto the cutting board.
- Sprinkle some flour onto the cookie dough and roll out the dough to about 2 inches thick
- Cut out your cookies and place onto the cookie sheet
- Bake your cookies for about 8 minutes
- Let them cool completely
Directions to Make the Royal Icing
- Using a stand mixer, combine all ingredients and mix on medium to high speed until thick and stiff with peaks about 6-7 minutes
- If your icing looks like yellow soup, add another cup of powder sugar
- Once your icing is made, scoop some white icing into one piping bag and set aside
- Scoop some more icing into a bowl and add in about 2 - 3 tablespoon water and mix until combined.
- Pour into squeeze bottle and set aside
- Scoop some icing, about ¾ up, into a bowl and add ivory food coloring, about 2-3 drops and mix until combined. You want a light ivory color comparable to pasta noodles
- Scoop the ivory icing into piping bag
- Using the remaining icing, add in red food coloring and mix until combined. Add in a few more drops of red food coloring to get the shade you want.
- Scoop a small amount into the piping bag and set aside
Decorating Directions:
- Using the white icing in the piping bag, pipe a line around the edges of the cookies and fill in with the white squeeze bottles.
- Let cookies completely harden over night before adding your pasta
- Once your cookies are dry, using the ivory piping bag pipe out noodles by holding the piping bag 1 inch up from the cookie that way when you squeeze the bag, the icing will come out in strings and fall onto the cookie. Make sure to move your hand to position where you want the noodles to be.
- Let the first layer of noodles dry for an hour before putting on the second layer.
- Once the second layer is one wait another hour.
- Once that hour is up, pipe out a glob of red icing onto the pasta for pasta sauce.
- Cut your chocolate in half and place into the middle of the red icing for your meatballs.
- Let cookies dry for another hour before enjoying!
