Discount Disney Park Tickets And Hotels

Please be aware that all Disney parks require park tickets and a theme park reservation. Make sure you have both! Please don’t pay the full price for your Disneyland tickets or hotel. My partners at Get Away Today have the very best deals on tickets and hotels. Their customer service is top-notch, and they even have layaway plans. You can find them by clicking on the image below or by calling 1-855-GET-AWAY. Make sure you tell them Melissa from Mix In Some Magic, sent you the best deal!

They have great deals on hotels! Many of their properties offer a free night with a stay, free parking, extra discounts, or a complimentary breakfast! You save the most money when you purchase a vacation package and bundle your hotel rooms with one of their discount resort ticket offer.

If you book a package with park tickets and a hotel room, you can use my code MIX10 to save an extra $10. That’s more churro money, friends!

I have a bunch of hotel reviews that might be helpful for you if you’re still trying to decide where you’d like to stay.

Jack Jack Num Num Cookies

Jack Jack’s Num Num Cookies(or is it Jack-Jack Cookie Num Nums? I’ve heard it both ways) are a favorite treat each time we visit Disneyland! Jack Jack’s Num Num Cookies are served warm at the Disney parks. You can even buy milk to wash them down! 

At Disneyland, you can find them at Disney California Adventure on Pixar Pier. They are at the Jack-Jack’s Cookie Num Nums stand near the Incredicoaster attraction. 

In Walt Disney World, you can find them in Hollywood studios at The Market, just outside of the Main entrance to Toy Story Land. 

Don’t be fooled. This isn’t your ordinary chocolate chip cookie. Jack Jack’s cookie num nums are so good not even Mr. Incredible can resist them. These cookies are made with browned butter, which takes them to a whole new level! Who knew that browned butter would be the best part of a cookie? Now that I’m thinking it over, it makes perfect sense! 

 Have you ever baked with browned butter? Browned butter adds a delicious “nutty” flavor that can’t be achieved any other way. Can I tell you a secret? The browned butter makes these cookies so delicious and absolutely unforgettable! That and a little bit of Disney magic. Prepare for people to beg you for this recipe. It’s a keeper. 

There’s nothing better than a warm cookie, so I prefer to eat these right out of the oven. Or, you can heat them in the microwave for about 10 seconds for the same effect. If you’re feeling fancy, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to the top! 

Any Disney fan is going to love these! It’s a warm, gooey slice of the happiest place on earth! Even people who aren’t Disney fans are going to be impressed. Who doesn’t love a good Disney copycat recipe? Jack Jack’s num cookies are going to be your new go-to cookie recipe!

Jack Jack’s Num Num Cookies Ingredients

• 1 Cup Butter
• 1 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
• 1/4 Cup White Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 Whole Egg
• 1 Egg Yolk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 2 1/4 Cup Flour
• 1 Cup Chocolate Chunks

Making Jack Jack’s Num Num Cookies

Let’s get started!

Prepare your baking cups. You can buy large paper baking cookie cups here if you like. However, they’re not necessary. I don’t bother with them. 

I take a standard cupcake liner, flatten it out a bit and shape it into a large circle with a little bit of an edge. It only takes a few seconds per cup. Worth saving the extra money! Or, you can also shape them into regular-size cookies and skip the papers altogether. 

Brown the butter. Cut butter into chunks to help it melt evenly. Cook on medium-low heat and stir frequently. Heat until butter just starts to brown and has a “nutty” smell. There will be some brown bits on the bottom. This is good! They have a lot of flavor. Stir frequently, and don’t let it burn! If the butter turns black, you’ve burned it. You will need to start again. 

Remove butter from heat and allow to cool. You can add it to the fridge to speed up the process. Soon, it will start to solidify; you’re good to go!

Cream butter, sugars, and salt in a mixing bowl on low speed. 

Add eggs and vanilla. Mix until the dough is light and fluffy.

 Then, add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

 Add chocolate chunks and stir to mix in. Roll cookie dough into balls or shape it into baking cups and chill for 1 hour or overnight(don’t skip this step!). 

Place on a large baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 7-10 minutes until golden brown on the edges.

I hope you enjoy this delicious treat! Jack Jack’s Num Num cookies are one of my very favorite things to eat at the Disney parks, along with a dole whip(of course!). This popular treat is worth visiting Disney California Adventure Park! If you’ve never had one at Disneyland or Disneyworld, make sure you grab one on your next trip. In the meantime, enjoy making Jack Jack’s Cookie Num Nums at home!
