'''Yoshi Cookies''' are the favorite snack of the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]]. They are featured as a special [[items|item]] in various [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' titles]] and also come in a variety of shapes including flowers, hearts, squares, circles and even Yoshi's face. Some cookies are chocolate, vanilla, and sugar cookies with icing in their centers or carry a checkerboard design.

 

In their debut title ''[[Yoshi's Cookie]]'', a puzzle game, Yoshi Cookies enter from either the top or side of the screen as Mario, dressed as a baker, pulls a lever. The plot of the game, in a fashion similar to ''Tetris'' or ''[[Dr. Mario (game)|Dr. Mario]]'', is to clear them out as Mario continues to fill the screen with more cookies. This done by pressing the A button and shifting an entire row of cookies. Once a row is, either horizontally or vertically, filled with the same kind of cookie, it is cleared from the screen. The Yoshi-shaped cookie acted like any kind of cookie.

In volume 8 of ''[[Super Mario-Kun]]'' (an adaption of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''), Mario briefly becomes a chef and throws Yoshi Cookies.

In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', [[Mario]] and [[Yoshi]] are required to bring Yoshi Cookies to [[Boshi]] in exchange for a race. Yoshi Cookies can also be used in battle where they summon Yoshi to eat an enemy and defeat it. Sometimes, it awards Mario an item as well. However, some enemies and bosses can not be eaten by Yoshi; if so, Yoshi gives Mario a [[Yoshi Candy]] or returns another Yoshi Cookie back.

There is a pink Yoshi near the GOAL letters that can store Cookies for Mario, up to a limit of 200. If the number of cookies goes over the 200 maximum, the Yoshi will eat the rest.

In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', if Mario gives [[Tayce T.]] a [[Melon]] and a [[Cake Mix]], she will make a single Yoshi Cookie. This item restores fifteen [[Heart Point|HP]] and fifteen [[Flower Point|FP]]. The [[Yoshi (species)|Yellow Yoshi]] in [[Yoshi's Village]] gives Mario a Melon if he brings him food cooked by [[Tayce T.]]. This item can be sold for twenty coins. Another type of Yoshi Cookie named [[Big Cookie]] also appears in the game. Yoshi Cookies also bear a strong resemblance to the [[Zess Cookie]] and [[Sweet Cookie Snack]] from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', respectively.

 

In ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 3]]'', the Modern version of ''[[Egg (Game & Watch)|Egg]]'' replaces the titular eggs with Yoshi Cookies, which bake while rolling down slopes. [[Yoshi (species)|Light Blue Yoshi]] can grab them at a certain distance, but if he waits too long, they will fall to the ground and be burned.

 

In ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 4]]'', the Modern version of ''[[Mario's Cement Factory]]'' replaces cement-making with cookie-making. The cookies are from ''Yoshi's Cookie''. If Yoshi gets the Yoshi Cookies from the top sent by Mario, he will instead eat the Yoshi Cookies instead of packaging them. If the Yoshi Cookies are sent to [[Toad]] at the right side, he will package them. Interestingly, the Yoshi Cookies fit in the packages whole.

In ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', the battle arena [[Cookie Land]] is shaped like a cookie and has a variety of Yoshi Cookies in the background. This stage reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' as a Retro Arena.

Many Yoshi Cookies appear in the ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' course [[Sweet Sweet Canyon]].

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'' in [[Yoshi's Island (place)|Yoshi's Island]] of the past, [[Kamek]] searches for cookies for [[Baby Bowser]]. When Kamek gives them to him, Baby Bowser eats too fast, chokes and drinks some milk. Baby Bowser gets enraged when he finds out that [[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Luigi]] ate the cookies while he was talking to Mario and [[Luigi]]. Luigi takes four Yoshi Cookies that Kamek dropped and gives one to Baby Luigi immediately. Later, he gives two cookies to Baby Mario and Baby Luigi to calm them down after entering [[Yoob's Belly]]. Luigi gave Baby Luigi the last cookie at the very end of the game, in exchange for Baby Luigi's [[Hammer]].

In ''[[Tetris DS]]'', Yoshi Cookies appear in the Puzzle Mode, which is based of the NES version of ''Yoshi's Cookie''.
