In an interview for her new Dawn partnership, Hudson opened up to PEOPLE about her son's best kitchen creations and his favorite TikTok recipes
Jennifer Hudson says the kitchen is the heart of her household.
During an interview with PEOPLE for her partnership with Dawn, the EGOT winner, 42, shared that she's been enjoying quality time in the kitchen with her teen son, David.
"Oh baby, he cooks down!" the proud mom said of her 15-year-old. "And as a parent watching the shift, one minute you're doing the cooking or preparing the food and all of that, and now, he's the master of the kitchen."
Hudson tells PEOPLE their roles have reversed in the kitchen.
"He'll tell me, 'Mama, you wash the dishes. Mama, you set the table,' Now, that's my job," she laughs. "It's amazing to see how much quickly they grow."

Jennifer's son, along with his cousins, enjoy trying all different recipes in her kitchen.
"Well, you know these children and these TikTok trends and recipes. He comes up with different things all the time. Not only do I have my son, I have him and seven of his cousins. It's a bunch of boys, going off of TikToks or recipe books and cooking up all these different things," she says.
Jennifer's proud that the boys have pretty wide-ranging palates.
"My son, he loves everything. He loves his steak. We love making pizza together, which is something that's so fun. He takes that over! And any dish that he comes up with from TikTok, he makes it, and then I have to taste it all. Luckily, he's a good cook, so it turns out okay," she says.
Hudson is partnering with Dawn to celebrate the iconic Dawn ducklings and share a feather-ruffling offer to help save money and wildlife.
For a limited time, beginning Sept. 17, shoppers and wildlife lovers can visit www.dawnducks.com to download a $1 coupon off Dawn Platinum EZ-Squeeze, and Dawn will donate $1 to the International Bird Rescue up to $100,000.
"I'm excited about my partnership with Dawn and anything that could help save the little ducklings," says Hudson, who appears in a new commercial alongside the iconic Dawn ducklings.
"I'm grateful for International Bird Rescue for everything that they are doing to save the birdies, that's for sure," she adds. "I love me some animals, and Dawn has always been part of my family's household and our kitchen. So, I love this partnership."
