Ingredients- Serves 2

12 oz of pineapple juice

6 oz of cream of coconut

4 oz of rum

Ube flavoring (I use the brand Butterfly)

Pandan flavoring- has a sweet coconut flavor (I use the brand Butterfly)

4-6 cups of ice cube

Instructions-

1. Mix 6 oz of pineapple juice, 3 oz of cream of coconut. 2 oz of rum, 1-2 drops of Ube flavoring, and 2-3 cups of ice in a blender. Add additional flavoring until the mixture is at your desired color. The mixture needs to be thick so you can stack the colors, so add additional ice if it’s still not dense enough. Once you’re happy with the taste, color, and thickness, store your Ube mixture in the freezer while you make the Pandan mixture.

Add additional flavoring until the mixture is at your desired color. The mixture needs to be thick so you can stack the colors, so add additional ice if it’s still not dense enough.
3. Pour a short layer of your ube mix into each glass, then a short layer of your pandan mixture. Repeat until you run out of mixture or reach the top of your glass. Top with a fun 90’s straw.
4. Because this is a frozen drink, I suggest making this close to when you’re about to start the film.

What an iconic scene! Now if I’m being honest, I think Cheez Whiz is gross, so I opted for making a homemade nacho cheese sauce for this dish. If you are recreating this scene, you have a few options. You can stay true to the film and make a tower out of canned Cheez Whiz. You can use the jar version of Chez Whiz. Or, you can make a homemade nacho cheese sauce like I did. See how I did it below. It’s super easy!

Ingredients-

16 slices of kraft yellow American cheese singles

¼ cup of milk

Instructions-

1. Add milk to a small pot and heat on the stovetop on medium heat. You want to keep the sauce below a simmer at all times so adjust the heat if it starts to simmer. I like to keep the heat at a 4-5 out of 10.
2. Add two kraft singles to your warm milk and stir often until the cheese completely melts. Then add two more cheese slices and repeat this process until all the cheese is melted and the sauce has thickened.
3. I recommend making this cheese sauce right before you start the movie and keeping it on your stovetop so it stays at the right temperature. When you’re ready to serve it, pour your hot sauce directly onto your tower sculpture and serve immediately so it’s enjoyed before it cools and hardens.

To make the tower sculpture, I stacked small bowls and glasses to create the right shape and then molded aluminum foil around everything. It’s very hard to make Cheez Whiz hold a shape like it does so I recommend doing something similar to this.

Ingredients-

Filet Mignon (or your choice of cut)

Steak seasoning

1-2 tbsp of Butter or Bacon Grease (I used the leftover bacon grease from the breakfast scene)

Instructions-

1. Prepare your steak by tenderizing both sides with a meat mallet or the back of your chef’s knife. This makes it super tender instead of tough and chewy.
2. Next, generously coat your steak with your favorite steak seasoning.
3. Melt your butter or bacon grease in a pan, and cook your steak for a few minutes on each side until it’s nicely seared. If you like your steak more well done, you can finish it off in the oven at 350 degrees F for a few minutes.
4. Remove your steak from the pan and let it rest on your cutting board before cutting it.

I personally do not like the taste of canned A-Z alphabet soup so I made my own tomato soup. To save time you can use the canned soup. For the letters, you have two options. You can use the letters from the can or if you can find the alphabet dried pasta, you can use that instead. If you want to make your own tomato soup, here is how I made it:

Ingredients-

½ an onion, chopped

3 cloves of mined garlic

1 tbsp olive oil

14.5 oz can of tomatoes

1 tbsp of tomato paste

1 tbsp of better than bouillon

½ tsp of basil

½ tsp of Italian seasoning

½ tsp of oregano

½ tsp of garlic powder

¼ cup heavy cream

½ tsp of black pepper

Salt to taste

Instructions-

1. Add the olive oil, chopped onions, and minced garlic to a medium-sized pot on medium-high heat. Cook for a few minutes until fragrant. Then add the tomatoes, tomato paste, and the better than bouillon to the pot. Cook for another few minutes until your paste and better than bouillon are incorporated.
2. Add the contents of your pot into a blender and blend on high for 5-10 seconds until everything is smooth.
3. Add your soup back to the pot and add all your seasoning and heavy cream. Bring to a simmer and stir often for a few minutes.
4. This is a great dish to make ahead of time. Soup tends to develop in flavor over time so you could make this the day before and store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.

Here’s how I made the smiley face plate and short stack.

1. I started by making the bacon. Cook the bacon as you normally would in a pan. To make the smile shape, the most important part is to not overcook the bacon and to shape it while it’s still warm and pliable. I layered a paper towel on my plate to soak up the bacon grease and once the bacon it cooked, I transferred it to the plate and shaped it into a smile. As it cooled, it crisped up and hardened into the smiley shape. Once cooled, I removed the paper towel.
2. In the same hot pan, I fried two eggs. I seasoned with salt and pepper and let the egg cook until the edges were crispy. I set up the eggs on the same plate as the bacon to look like the eyes.
3. For the nose, I used a three-leaf cut of parsley. I kept it in the refrigerator separate from the eggs and bacon and then added it right before serving (after I reheated the eggs and bacon in the microwave).  
4. For the short stack, I made buttermilk pancakes from the recipe below. This recipe was incredible! It’s rated 5 stars and has over 13,000 reviews! Before serving, I poured maple syrup on top. Click Here for Recipe

Who else dreamed about trying this pizza growing up?! I wanted to capture the cheesiness and drippiness so I made some modifications. To save time, I used a frozen pizza. Here is how I made it look like the movie pizza.

1. Frozen Pepperoni Pizza- set your frozen pizza on a parchment-covered baking sheet and remove all pepperonis and set aside for later.
2. To make it extra cheesy you have a few options. You can add freshly grated mozzarella cheese on top of the cheese that’s already there or you can make a cheese sauce to add to that drippiness effect. Or you can do both for the ultimate cheesy, drippy pizza! If you are doing both, I recommend pouring the cheese sauce and then sprinkling mozzarella on top.
3. To make the cheese sauce:

Ingredients-

16 slices of kraft white American cheese singles

¼ cup of milk

Instructions-

1. Add milk to a small pot and heat on the stovetop on medium heat. You want to keep the sauce below a simmer at all times so adjust the heat if it starts to simmer. I like to keep the heat at a 4-5 out of 10.
2. Add two kraft singles to your warm milk and stir often until the cheese completely melts. Then add two more cheese slices and repeat this process until all the cheese is melted and the sauce has thickened.

After adding your cheese, add the pepperoni on top. The pizza in the movie did not have a lot of pepperoni and it had different shapes. What I did was evenly distribute whole pieces of pepperoni around the pizza. I then cut out smaller circles of pepperoni and uneven pieces.

I cooked the pizza per the instructions on the box and then I torched the top with my kitchen torch to give the top some color.

1.5 oz lemon juice

1.5 oz triple sec

Pop rock cake pops I wanted to depict the moment when Goofy is electrocuted in the bubble while also paying tribute to the legend that is Powerline. I’m really happy with how it turned out with the bubbles and lights. Serving this dish felt like we were at the concert with K-Pop light sticks.

Here is the link for the bubbles

To save time I bought cake pops at the store and then drizzled chocolate on top and covered them with purple grape pop rocks. If you want to make these fresh, here is a recipe.
