Creamy Baked TikTok Spaghetti
This viral spaghetti bake is a cozy meal packed with creamy cheese and a savory tomato sauce.
dailyrecipesbook.comIf you spend any time on social media, you have likely seen this popular pasta dish. It is a fantastic way to turn a simple box of noodles into a rich, comforting meal that feels special enough for guests but is easy enough for a busy Tuesday night.
The secret is mixing your sauce and cheese right in the baking dish before popping it into the oven. My biggest tip is to make sure your pasta is al dente because it will continue to soak up the sauce while it bakes.
Ingredients
- 1 pound spaghetti
- 1 jar of your favorite marinara sauce
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- 2
Cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water according to the package directions, but drain it one minute early so it stays firm.
- 3
In a large baking dish, combine the marinara sauce, heavy cream, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
- 4
Add the cooked noodles to the dish and toss them until they are well coated in the creamy sauce.
- 5
Sprinkle the mozzarella and parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
- 6
Bake for 20 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden on top.
๐ก Tips
Serve this dish immediately while the cheese is gooey and hot. If you have leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days and reheat with a splash of water to keep the sauce creamy.
