Dive into the enchantment of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast with this delectable recipe for “The Grey Stuff”! Indulge in this magical treat, “It’s Delicious!” that will transport your taste buds straight to the whimsical world of Belle and the Beast!
Disney Fans will recognize the words “The Grey Stuff” from the iconic song “Be Our Guest” from The Beauty and The Beast ; one of my favorite Disney of all times!
“[Lumiere:] Be our guest
Be our guest
Put our service to the test
Tie your napkin round your neck, cherie
And we provide the rest
Soupe du jour
Hot hors d’oeuvres
Why, we only live to serve
Try the grey stuff, it’s delicious
Don’t believe me, ask the dishes”
Disney World is amazing! Not only are the rides and shows awesome, but so is the food! For years you could only eat “The Grey Stuff” at Be Our Guest Restaurant located in the Magic Kingdom Park. Now you can enjoy the same treat in form of a cupcake at Gaston’s Tavern next door.

- Take your vanilla pudding out of the refrigerator and fold the crushed Oreo cookies. Mix until combined.
- Add the thawed whipped topping (NOTE: To make your own Chantilly, follow the step below!) and instant chocolate pudding (I believe 1 Tablespoon is sufficient). Mix until combined. Transfer the grey stuff into a Pastry Bag with the star tip. Set aside in the refrigerator.8 oz frozen whipped topping, thawed, 3 Tbsp instant chocolate pudding mix

- Note from Disney: This recipe has been converted from a larger quantity in the restaurant kitchens. The flavor profile may vary from the restaurant’s version. As a reminder, while preparing this recipe, please supervise children who are helping or nearby.
MASCARPONE CHANTILLY PREPARATION
- In a mixing bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese together with the vanilla bean paste, on medium high speed until smooth, about 1 minute.8 oz Mascarpone cheese, 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
- Add the heavy cream a splash at a time while beating on medium high speed until light and fluffy, for about 2 minutes. Then, fold the powdered sugar until it is combined. IMPORTANT: Do not over mix! Set aside.8.46 oz heavy cream

SUGAR COOKIE DOUGH PREPARATION
- Place your Large Bonmat on the top of your Large Perforated Baking Sheet. Set Aside.
- 14.65 oz all-purpose flour, 1/2 Tbsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp sea salt
- In the bowl of your stand mixer, with the paddle attachment on, cream the butter together with the sugar and vanilla bean paste. Start on your lowest setting and increase the speed until you reach the desired consistency. About 4 minutes. Scrap the bowl down when necessary.7.95 oz butter, 7.05 oz granulated sugar, 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
- Add the egg and light grey or black colorant. Continue mixing on medium speed until mostly combined, it will curdle, that's normal. IMPORTANT: Do not over mix.1 egg, Food Colorant
- Bring back the speed to the lowest setting and gradually add the dry ingredients. Your dough is ready once it does not stick to the sides of your bowl (about 2 minutes). Scrap the bowl down when necessary. NOTE: Adjust the grey color if necessary.
ASSEMBLY
- Preheat oven to 350F/180C. NOTE: Roll your rolling pin into a bit of flour, before rolling your dough.
- Transfer your dough directly onto your Roul'Pat.
- Roll it into a large square. I like my cookies a 1/4 inch | 0.60 cm thick. Cut your cookie dough using the fluted round dough cutter.
- Place your cookies directly onto the Bonmat well apart.
BAKE!
- Bake for 8 minutes at 350F/180C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your cookies from 7 minutes). It is ready when they don't look quite done and barely golden around the edge, the top staying soft.
- Once your Sugar Cookies are out of the oven, let them completely cool down as is on your Baking Sheet.
- This recipe makes about 20 cookies using a 3 inch | 8 cm cutter. N.B. These cookies are best stored in a tin box at room temperature. The Chantilly is best stored in the refrigerator up to 2 days.
