A FAvorite Disney Treat!
It may be safe to say that we are mildly obsessed with Disney food and treats which is why we have several Disney recipes and copycats on the site! One of our favorite desserts to enjoy at the parks is the MickeyBeignets. They are found at Disneyland in New Orleans Square inside Cafe Orleans and at the Mint Julep Bar. At Walt Disney World, they can be found at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – French Quarter. Good news is now you don’t have to go to the parks to enjoy these delicious Disney Beignets because this copycat version tastes JUST like the real thing.

How to Make Disney Beignets
Vanilla Creme Anglaise
This is our favorite sauce to serve with the beignets. Although we haven’t had this at the parks with the Disney Beignets, this is often served with them on the Disney cruises at restaurants like Tiana’s Place. Recipe Video Recipe Video Recipe Video
