“In “Toy Story 4,” when Bonnie finds herself all alone during kindergarten orientation, Woody just has to help—even if it means digging through a trash can to retrieve a few art supplies for his kid. The effort is a resounding success, but when Bonnie’s beloved new craft-project-turned-toy, Forky, declares himself trash and not a toy, Woody takes it upon himself to show Forky why he should embrace being a toy. “Forky is like a newborn,” says producer Mark Nielsen. “He doesn’t know anything about life—he doesn’t even understand why he’s alive or what a toy even is. He makes Woody vocalize what it means to be a toy.”

And now that every child has seen Forky, they want to make their own Forky.

Directions on making Forky Cookies

This is a basic cookie recipe, using a free Forky printable to turn them into Forky cookies. These cookies would be great to serve at a Toy Story Birthday party or movie night.

Ingredients:

½ stick butter softened
½ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour + extra for rolling
½ tsp baking powder
Pinch salt
Forky-inspired printable (we’ve included one for you!)
2-3 oz. red fondant
1-2 oz. blue fondant
24 candy googly eyes
White decorating frosting

Yields: One dozen decorated cookies

Directions:

In a large bowl, mix together butter, sugar, egg and vanilla extract. Set aside.
In a smaller bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add dry ingredients into a large bowl of wet ingredients. Knead once you see the cookie dough taking shape.
Once the cookie dough takes shape, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes.
Once the 30 minutes is up, remove the dough from the fridge.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Sprinkle a clean working surface with flour. Also, add flour to a rolling pin.
Roll out the cookie dough until it’s about ¼ of an inch thick.
Cut out the Forky-inspired shapes from the printable.
Place the paper shapes on top of the rolled out dough and use a paring knife to trace it out on the dough to achieve the same shape.
Repeat until you have 12 Forky-shaped cookies. Place each one gently on the lined baking sheet. *There may be leftover cookie dough, so wrap it up in plastic and save in the fridge for up to a week!
Bake for 6-7 minutes and allow to cool completely before decorating.

To assemble one cookie:

Use a toothpick to dot decorating frosting on the back of two candy googly eyes. Secure on the cookie.
Roll out a small strip of red fondant and place over on the top of the eyes – these will act as the unibrow.
Roll out a small strip of blue fondant and give it a circular shape. Place it just underneath the eyes – this will act as the mouth.
Roll out a red fondant sphere, about ½ an inch in size.
Roll the fondant sphere into a thin, long strip, about 6-7 inches in length, and loop both ends.
Center the red fondant strip on the body of the cookie.
