Beignet Blanc is a parody of Daniel Craig's character Benoit Blanc from the Knives Out franchise. He appears in a 2025 web video produced by Netflix and Sesame Street.
He is described as the world's greatest detective (in contrast to Grover), and visits Sesame Street to investigate the disappearance of Cookie Monster's triple berry pie. After assessing the clues and ruling out suspects, he correctly surmises that Oscar the Grouch's "Free Sample" sign intended for his own sardine pie instead caused everyone on the street to sample Cookie's pie. A stain on Beignet reveals he too couldn't resist and had a slice himself.
A beignet (pronounced "ben-yay") is a deep-fried French pastry.
