Butterbear Cookie

"A toy is not created, it is befriended."

Butterbear Cookie (Korean: 버터베어맛 쿠키, botobeomat kuki) is an Epic Cookie released alongside his Pet, $π$. He collects Yarn Jellies and makes teddy bears for young Cookies while running.

Previously an NPC in the A Very Special Winter Story, he was released in the second half of The Lost Holiday update, following Lollipop Cookie's release. He is the owner of the Merrybear Toy Shop, as well as the brother of Eggnog Cookie and the father of Lollipop Cookie.

Story
''Rumors say that if you enter the Merrybear Toy Shop, your holiday wishes come true. Just as magical as those rumors is the owner of that very shop; Butterbear Cookie. The Cookie, made by butter melted whole, kind of has the cozy aura of a teddy bear himself, perhaps thanks to his soft creamy topping. The Cookie opens his shop every day to share happiness and joy with young Cookies, and makes countless toys with lovely packaging, that you wouldn't find anywhere else! It makes you wonder what the Cookie could have worked with before opening the toy shop... He is said to be so generous that you end up with your arms full of gifts, even if you only came to buy a ribbon for your doll! But perhaps the true secret to all the young Cookies' laughter is Butterbear Cookie's own laugh as he happily greets him.''

Trivia

 * It can be assumed that the work Butterbear Cookie mentions he did before may have been some sort of gift-giving with Eggnog Cookie, as both share a role in caring for young Cookies and have similar sounding Santa-esque voices in their Jump and Slide sound effects.
 * This is later affirmed in the What in Your Bag? YouTube video as Cheesecake Cookie vaguely remembers a Ginger Claus with the appearance of Butterbear Cookie gifting her a key chain of her pet. While it is difficult to decipher him in the memory bubble presented, he looks visually younger within her blurry memory- specifically possibly lacking his mustache.
 * Butterbear Cookie's Trial theme was shown early in the Cookie Run: OvenBreak OST Complete Collection playlist.
 * Butterbear Cookie's ability to bring toys to life may be a reference to Pinocchio- specifically to the character Geppetto.
 * His skill features the following Cookies:
