A magnetized tray enables handsfree dunking.

For some, cookie dunking is an art, requiring clean hands and a perfectly timed dip that keeps the cookie's crunch while coating it in milk. Dip the cookie too long and one could end up with a soggy snack. Worse still is dropping the cookie into the milk and fishing it out with a fork.
Faced with such cookie woes and armed with an engineering background, Connecticut parents Jason Wells and Kiana Machnicz set out to create prototypes of a "hands-free cookie dunking device." And while a Kickstarter campaign for the device did not take off, the media mileage the product received and help from a private investor allowed the couple to sell the Dunking Buddy on their website.
The Dunking Buddy consists of a tray and a handle, both of which are equipped with magnets, and a color-changing cup. The tray is placed inside cup and the handle is placed outside, with the magnets holding them together. A cookie is placed in the tray and the handle is pulled down to dunk the cookie in the milk. The product retails for $9.95.
Volume buyers looking to import similarly playful cookie mugs can check out GlobalSources.com's selection of ceramic mugs with an opening near the base that can hold several cookies.
