Holiday baking is a family affair for the Ripa-Consuelos clan!
“Well, well, well. The chickens are back in the coop for the holidays,” Ripa, 53, began the segment.
Before they jumped into baking, the kids each gave the audience a quick life update, at the request of Consuelos, 52.
Michael, 26, shared that he has been living in Brooklyn, New York and producing for theReal Housewivesfor about two years, joking that he’s “still sane."
Lola, 22, whorecently moved to London, revealed shehas been making new music.
Tthe family then shared why they chose to make gingerbread cookies — which are “Michael’s favorite,” per Consuelos.
According to Michael, he proposed they “do gingerbread” for theKelly and Marksegment, and his family did not offer any other ideas. “So, that’s why we’re doing it,” he added.
Then, Lola began giving instructions for the recipe — starting with preheating the oven — as Ripa joked, “And Lola, do you know which device in here is an oven?”
Ripa and Consuelos proceeded to mix up the ingredients as Michael cheered them on, saying “You’re doing great.”

As Lola continued the instructions, Ripa teased her again. “Lola, do you know what you’re saying or are you just saying words?”
“Unlike you two, this is not my first cookie,” the co-host joked.
When it came time to roll the dough, Ripa switched targets, teasing her husband instead: “Mark, you have a lot of aggression, you do that.”
After the segment, Ripa shared aphotoof the family on Instagram, along with an update on Joaquin.
