What you need
Steps
Trace two circles about 8 cm across onto brown felt using a template or the rim of a cup. Cut both out with sharp fabric scissors.
Cut a wavy worm shape from pink felt, roughly 10 cm long and 2 cm wide, plus two tiny circles from white felt and two smaller ones from black felt for the eyes.
Sew or glue the white circles to one end of the worm, then add the black dots on top. Let the glue dry fully before you handle it.
Pin the two brown circles together. Sew around the edge with a whip stitch or blanket stitch, leaving a 3 cm gap for stuffing.
Push small pinches of fiberfill through the gap until the cookie feels soft but still fairly flat. Do not overstuff or the stitches will pull.
Sew the gap closed with the same stitch, then push the needle through the middle of the cookie and knot the thread inside so the end is hidden.
Cut small circles from dark brown felt and stitch them on top as chocolate chips, using three or four stitches each.
Sew or glue the worm to the top of the cookie. Press it down for about 30 seconds until it holds firm.
Tips and common mistakes
Wool or wool-blend felt holds its shape better than cheap acrylic felt, which pills with play.
Keep your stitches small and even so the stuffing does not show through the seams.
Always knot and finish thread on the inside of the cookie, otherwise little hands will pull it loose.
Test any glue on a felt scrap first, since some glues soak through and leave a hard shiny patch.
Questions
Can I make this without a sewing machine?
Yes. The whole cookie is hand sewn with a basic whip or blanket stitch, so a needle and thread are enough.
Is it safe for a toddler?
Treat it as a toy for children past the mouthing stage, and check the worm and eyes are sewn on firmly before every play session.
How big should the cookie be?
About 8 cm across fits most play kitchen pans and plates. Scale the circle up or down to match the pots you already have.
