Taraj P. Henson won “Best Actress in a TV Series Drama” at last weekend’s Golden Globes ceremony.

The star was so overjoyed by the win that she handed out cookies to the audience before taking the stage. (Henson, of course, plays Cookie Lyons on the Fox hit.) But it didn’t end there. Henson snapped at the man who helped her up the stairs because he stepped on the long train of her Stella McCartney dress, and yelled at the teleprompter for telling her to wrap up her speech.

During her acceptance speech, Taraji made sure to thank “Cookie” for her realness.

“Cookies for everyone tonight — my treat,” the actress began after passing out the sweets to Leonardo DiCaprio and Lady Gaga (among others). “Hollywood Foreign Press, thank you. I mean, who knew that playing an ex convict would take me all around the globe. It just goes to show — I thought it would be Queenie, Will, my character from Karate Kid — but it’s Cookie, who spent 17 years in jail for selling crack. So the world loves real, thank you. So many people to thank. My manager… my publicist…” (Golden Globes 2016)
