If you’re looking for some Disney food and fun at home, these Mickey Churro Cookies will help bring the Disney magic to your home.
It’s no secret that we love Disney around here. We love going to Disneyland or Disney World and my kids favorite vacation just might be a cruise on the “Mickey Boat”.
We always book our Disney travel with our friends at Get Away Today. They have amazing customer service, discounted tickets to Disneyland, great hotel rates, layaway options and more. And if you want to book a hotel and ticket package to Disneyland with them, you can use the code LIZONCALL to save an additional $10 on your trip.
Yes we love to vacation Disney style. But we also love to find some Disney magic at home as well. We like to make Disney crafts. Or have Disney themed parties. And I really love to make Disney inspired recipes.
Disney food is some of my favorites. And really anything Mickey shaped is just so much more fun to eat! A stop to the Candy Palace on Main Street is a must when we visit the park.
We love seeing the beautiful treats in the display case. It’s so hard to choose just one item to buy. So we usually buy more than one.
You can find the Mickey Churro Cookies in Disneyland usually at Candy Palace and Pooh’s Corner in Disneyland. At Marceline’s Confectionary in Downtown Diseny. And at Trolley Treats and Bing Bongs in California Adventure.
But sometimes you just can’t make it to Disney and still want a magical treat. And these Mickey churro cookies are just perfect for that kind of occasion.
Mickey Churro Cookies
Making sugar cookies really is a labor of love. Mixing the dough. Rolling out the dough. Cutting out the cookies and then baking all of them is just the tip of the Mickey Churro Cookies ice berg. You still have to frost them all!
It really sounds like a lot. I know! But once you get in a grove of making these cookies, you will be so happy with the delicious result, you’ll want to make them for everyone!
