Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.
- Prepare the cake mix according to package directions. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake until cupcakes are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the cupcakes to a wire rack and cool completely.
- Scoop the vanilla frosting into a medium bowl; tint the frosting with the cocoa powder and yellow food coloring; using an electric mixer, beat to combine. Spread a thin layer of tinted frosting on top of the cupcakes. Arrange the cupcakes on a serving platter.
- Spoon the remaining tinted frosting into a piping bag fitted with a small round tip. Pipe (Noodles) frosting all over the cupcakes, piling it high and having some of the (Noodles) frosting hang over the edges of the cupcakes
- Unwrap the hazelnut chocolates. Pour strawberry preserves into a medium bowl; toss the chocolates with preserves to coat. Place a (Meatball) coated chocolate on top of each cupcake; spoon cupcakes with the remaining (Spaghetti Sauce) strawberry preserves.
- Sprinkle the cupcakes with (Parmesan Cheese) grated white chocolate and serve.
SPAGHETTI AND MEATBALLS (CUPCAKES)
More of a how-to than an actual recipe as this begins with 10 of your favorite white cupcakes, either from a box or homemade. Fun to make, fun to serve, and no fancy equipment needed either. I used a #7 tip to pipe on the spaghetti but you can use a Ziploc and snip off a corner if the other isn't available. Zaar editor would not recognize the 11 hazelnut chocolates (Ferrero Rocher) needed for an all-important part of the presentation...the meatballs! Please keep that in mind.

Steps:
- Use both the unsweetened cocoa powder and yellow food coloring to tint the icing. Spread a thin layer on top of each of the 10 cupcakes and arrange on a platter, four down the center and three on each side. Place so they are just touching each other. This will form the bed for your "pasta".
- Put remaing icing in a pastry bag, press the air out then seal. Using a plain tip pipe the icing all over the cupcakes to look like spaghetti letting some fall over the sides of the cupcakes for an authentic look.
- Place the hazelnuts and strawbery preserves in a bowl and toss to coat Spoon a bit of the preserves on top of each cupcake then place a hazelnut (meatball) on each and let that extra meatball fall on the side of the platter. Sprinkle with the grated white chocolate (parmesan). Place the chocolate chunk on a small plate along with a mini grater and bring to the table when you serve your spaghetti dessert.
- Enjoy your spaghetti & meatballs!

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh ground beef, sweet Italian sausage, and ripe tomatoes are all essential.
- Don't overmix the meatball mixture, or the meatballs will be tough.
- Bake the meatballs at a high temperature so they get crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
- Use a muffin tin that is specifically designed for cupcakes, as regular muffin tins may be too large.
- Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full, as the meatballs will expand as they bake.
- Bake the meatballs until they are cooked through, but not dry. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the meatballs cool slightly before serving, so they are easier to handle.
Conclusion:
Spaghetti and meatball cupcakes are a fun and delicious way to enjoy a classic Italian dish. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or a quick and easy weeknight meal. With a little planning and effort, you can make these cupcakes that are sure to impress your friends and family.
