Can we be honest about the Elf food recipe?
Although it’s funny — I mean that classic Buddy the Elf spaghetti pop tarts smash? GOLD — we didn’t want to make the Elf movie spaghetti recipe just to recreate the Buddy the Elf breakfast spaghetti scene and waste food by creating a pasta recipe nobody wants to eat.
We wanted to create a fun holiday treat that gave a nod to the Buddy Elf movie, while also giving you candy spaghetti cookies you actually want to eat!
I mean, does spaghetti and syrup taste good?
I have no idea. (Maybe?) But, these Buddy the Elf pasta desserts sure do!
Here’s how to make Buddy the Elf’s breakfast pasta that you will really eat.
It’s our take on the Buddy Elf spaghetti recipe — except kind of in an Elf Christmas cookie bar form!
They super fun foods for a kids holiday party or Christmas Elf theme party!
If you want to have a lot of fun, allow kids to decorate their own Buddy the Elf spaghetti cookies.
Here’s how to make sweet treats from the Elf movie (no bake cookies)…
How To Make Elf Movie Breakfast Spaghetti Buddy the Elf Cookies
For our Buddy The Elf spaghetti cookie bars, we used butterscotch morsels and also milk chocolate.
If you want a lighter cookie to look more like the color of spaghetti noodles, use white chocolate instead of milk chocolate.
You can also spread these in a baking pan and, once they’ve set, cut them apart for Buddy The Elf cookie bars.
But, we think they’re super cute as little piles of mini spaghetti – no baking required!
Don’t forget that this is Elf syrup spaghetti! Serve garnished with chocolate sauce and maple syrup sauce to stay with the Elf theme.

Can they be made a day ahead of use?
Hi Jessica,
I’m not sure how well they keep because we made them and then used them (ate them) that afternoon. I would definitely put them in an airtight container and then not add the chocolate syrup drizzle until right before you serve them.
