BAKING BLISS: Travis Kelce and Niece Elliotte Turn Kitchen into a Giggle Fest!

NFL star Travis Kelce may be known for crushing defenses on the field, but last Sunday, he tackled a very different challenge: baking cookies with his 3-year-old niece, Elliotte Kelce. The result? A heartwarming, flour-flying adventure that has the internet collectively saying, “Aww!”

The adorable duo was caught on video turning Jason and Kylie Kelce’s kitchen into a sweet and silly chaos zone, complete with flour explosions, icing mishaps, and enough giggles to melt even the toughest linebacker’s heart.

Uncle Duty, Activated

It all started with a simple mission: bake cookies for Elliotte’s preschool class. According to Kylie Kelce, her middle daughter had “very specific instructions” for Uncle Travis when he visited over the weekend.

“She told him he had to help because he’s the best at big strong stirring,” Kylie laughed. “And how do you say no to that?”

Travis—who’s proven he’s just as much of a softie off the field as he is a powerhouse on it—rolled up his sleeves (literally) and dove in headfirst.

Cookie Chaos Caught on Camera

In a now-viral video posted by Kylie, Travis can be seen perched at the kitchen island, surrounded by mixing bowls, bags of sugar, and one very determined toddler. Elliotte, wearing a cupcake-covered apron and tiny chef’s hat, is the undisputed boss of the kitchen.

“Okay Unca Trav,” she declares, “you mix. I pour!”

Within seconds, flour is everywhere. At one point, Travis sneezes mid-mix, sending a cloud of powdered sugar into the air. Elliotte bursts into laughter. “Unca Trav made cookie snow!”

Fans were quick to point out the pure joy on both their faces—and the utter mess that followed. Cookie dough somehow ends up in Travis’s hair, and Elliotte attempts to “decorate” his beard with rainbow sprinkles.

“Is this supposed to be happening?” Travis asks at one point, as Elliotte gleefully smears icing on his nose. Her response: “Yup!”

A New Favorite Video

The Kelce family video racked up millions of views within hours on TikTok and Instagram, with fans declaring it “the cutest thing on the internet.”

“I didn’t know I needed Travis Kelce in a sprinkle-covered apron until now,” one user commented.

Another wrote, “He’s not just a football star—he’s Uncle of the Year.”

Even fellow athletes and celebrities chimed in. Patrick Mahomes reposted the clip with the caption, “Sign him up for Bake Off!” Meanwhile, Taylor Swift fans couldn’t help but imagine her joining in on the next baking session. (Let’s be honest—Taylor + Travis + toddlers + cookies = a Hallmark movie waiting to happen.)

Elliotte’s Verdict: “Yummy!”

After nearly an hour of mixing, spilling, laughing, and taste-testing, the final product was proudly packed into pink paper boxes for Elliotte’s class.

“She said they were the ‘yummiest cookies ever,’” Jason Kelce shared on his New Heights podcast. “Which basically means they were half sugar and 100% love.”

He also joked that Travis may need a few baking lessons before their next kitchen adventure. “I found cookie dough in the toaster. I don’t even know how that’s possible.”

The Softer Side of Kelce

Though fans are used to seeing Travis Kelce dominate the gridiron, these rare behind-the-scenes moments show a softer, goofier side to the NFL superstar.

Whether he’s dressing up as a donkey for a school play or getting frosting in his beard for his niece, Travis continues to prove he’s more than just an athlete—he’s a devoted uncle, a playful family man, and, most importantly, a big kid at heart.

So what’s next for Travis and Elliotte? Rumor has it they’re planning a tea party. Someone alert the internet: more cuteness is on the way.
