Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Kosher salt
Nonstick cooking spray
8 ounces uncooked spaghetti
1 1/2 cups marinara sauce
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella
Grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Grease a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray.
  • Cook the spaghetti until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain the pasta, rinse with cold water and transfer to a large bowl.
  • Stir in 1 cup of the marinara sauce until combined, and then stir in 1 cup mozzarella. Using a large spoon and fork, twirl the pasta into nests and transfer to the prepared muffin pan cavities.
  • Top the nests with the remaining 1/2 cup marinara sauce and 1/2 cup mozzarella.
  • Bake until the tops are golden brown and the edges are slightly crispy, about 15 minutes.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes, then use a spoon to transfer the cupcakes to serving plates. Garnish with grated Parmesan and serve.
