One of the most popular shows on Disney+ right now is the Star Wars show, "Mandalorian", which according to Observer has over 100,000 viewers overall which puts it above "Saturday Night Live" and "Stranger Things," which has 81,000 viewers. The show exceeded expectations and, as a consequence, made Disney+ more competitive to Netflix.
One of the most popular characters on the show that everyone on social media has fallen in love with is Baby Yoda. You do not have to be a Star Wars fan to admit that Baby Yoda is adorable! And although the show hasn't specifically stated the name of the character, yet, the internet has settled on calling him Baby Yoda.

But if you are as obsessed with Baby Yoda as I am, along with everyone else on the internet, then you will want to know this genius backing hack that was created by Instagram user Katy Atakturk (@atakturk). Katy was able to figure out a way to make Baby Yoda cookies that look just like the character from the beloved show, and it's a lot easier than you think.
According to Katy, all you have to do to create the Baby Yoda cookies of your dreams is to cut the head off of your angel cookie cutter and use that to cut the cookies. Use sugar cookie dough to make the cookies, then decorate with green, white, and brown frosting. That's it! It's that simple!
You won't even need to buy an extra cookie cutter! The only thing you would need to get is cookie dough and frosting to decorate. Even if you're like me and can't cook that well, these cookies are very easy to make! And there are a ton of recipes you can use for making sugar cookies that are for anyone who's a beginner - check out this easy sugar cookie recipe from Allrecipes.
These cookies are SO adorable! They appear to be 100 percent accurate to the character's appearance in the show. People loved them so much that a Tweet about the cookie hack from Twitter user J.R. McGrail received over 148,000 likes and over 27,000 retweets in just a couple days!

So yes, forget about making cookies with snowmen or reindeer this holiday season, and instead, make cute Baby Yoda cookies!
These would also be a great snack for watching the premiere of new episodes of "Mandalorian" and hosting a party with friends! Or better yet, you could host a Star Wars theme party!
You could also make other Star Wars-themed cookies to accompany these Baby Yoda ones. You could make Darth Vader cookies or attempt to make lightsaber ones if you want to impress your friends! There are so many ideas to choose from!
The Baby Yoda cookie idea is also perfect for keeping everyone satisfied while anxiously awaiting for the new plush Baby Yoda toy to come out.
The only downside of all these cookie recipes is that you will constantly find yourself baking cookies and going off of your diet. But it's definitely worth it if you're a huge "Star Wars" fan, or if you simply think Baby Yoda is adorable!
Now if you need me, instead of baking Christmas cookies, I will be baking a dozen of these Baby Yoda cookies to keep me satisfied until the next "Mandalorian" episode.
