People Pleasing 101: How to Make the World’s Cutest Two-Year Old Your Best Friend

If that was a really book or class, these cookies would be featured first.

A couple of weekends ago, a friend and I went with the scholars she’s working with from Rwanda to dinner with one of the sweetest families we know. They have two children, an almost three-year old and one who’s just over a year old.

I offered to make cookies to bring (because let’s be real, I never show up anywhere without some kind of baked good). I knew I wanted to make some toffee bit cookies but I also wanted to make something that screamed “toddler” and these cookies were it.

These are vanilla bean confetti cookies from Joy the Baker‘s book, Homemade Decadence. There are sprinkles in the dough and they’re rolled in sprinkles before baking. It’s a colourful sprinkle explosion of the best kind and they are the perfect cookie for making a two-year old your best friend for the night!

I mean, seriously. I got hugs, high fives, and she showed off some of her new ballet moves. These cookies are magic!

We had such a great night. There was pizza (because you can never go wrong with pizza), cookies, cobbler, cornhole, singing and dancing. I’m telling you, these scholars are people you want to get to know.

Make these cookies, make a toddler your best friend.
