Cooking Mama 2: Dinner with Friends (released as Cooking Mama 2 in PAL regions and クッキング ママ2 in Japan) is the sequel to the 2006 Nintendo DS video game Cooking Mama and its Wii successor, Cooking Mama: Cook Off. The game has twice as many minigames as the original, all new recipes, and a new multiplayer "Cook Off" mode.
The game also includes voice clips similar to the ones used in Cooking Mama: Cook Off, although not as commonly used. Dinner with Friends is the second Cooking Mama game to include desserts, the first being Cooking Mama: Cook Off for the Wii.

Trivia[]
- This game introduces the feature of choosing which utensil to use during a specific step. For example, when mixing ingredients the player could use chopsticks or a whisk. One utensil would finish the job quicker and net the player a bonus with the risk of failing the entire step. The other would require more physical handwork at the benefit of a risk-free result.
- There is a recipe called NONE that can be accessed via glitches, however, it only contains 20 "Chop It!" steps and 1 "Boil It!" step. Selecting any step will softlock the game.
