Here’s What You Need to Do:
The Cake
- Bake a cake in an oven safe serving dish. Any recipe or boxed mix will do.

- 1 cup butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup milk, room temperature

- 2 pounds confectioners’ sugar
- Combine all the ingredients in large mixing bowl and mix at slow speed until smooth.
- If frosting is not stiff enough add more confectioner’s sugar 2-3 tablespoons at a time.
- Frost the top of the cooled cake with a thin 1/4″ layer of frosting.
- Attach a size 12 (or similar size) decorating tip to a decorating bag and fill it with frosting.
- Squeeze the frosting out over the cake randomly to look like spaghetti until the entire cake is covered
The Garnishments
The “Meatballs”
- 12 Chocolate Wafer Cookies
- 1/2 cup Buttercream Frosting
- 1 Tbsp Cocoa
- Crush the cookies to a crumbly consistency.
- Mix together with frosting and cocoa.
- Form the mixture into five or six 1 & 1/2 inch “meatballs.”
- Place them randomly on top of the frosting “noodles.”
The “Marinara Sauce”
- Stir well, one jar of Strawberry Preserves.
- If necessary add water 1 tsp at a time until it is the consistency of thick spaghetti sauce.
- Pour mixture over the top of the cake to look like spaghetti sauce.
The “Parmesan”
- Crush one or two vanilla wafer cookies and sprinkle over the top of the cake to look like Parmesan Cheese.
Serve the prepared Spaghetti Cake to your family and friends and watch their looks of surprise and confusion turn to joy as they enjoy the delicious dessert!

Oh my god that’s genious! If I can find a way to “veganize” this recipe (substituting butter and milk shouldn’t be a problem), I will definitely make this recipe for my friends as soon as possible!
Thank you for sharing at Friday Favorites linky party 🙂
