Quiz: The video, dubbed 'Maddie vs Daddy' sees the adorable one-year-old repeatedly asked who her favourite parent is
Maddie's father Mick tries to catch her out by asking her who her least favourite parent is, but the little girl does not take the bait
When her father first poses the question, Maddie blurts out 'Mum' before her Dad can even give her both the options.
Mick perseveres by asking his little girl to say the word 'Dad', but she will only murmur the first part of the word.
When he tries to catch Maddie off guard by immediately following with, 'Who's your favourite?', she still replies 'Mum', causing an exasperated sigh from her father.
The video of baby Maddie has gone viral since it was posted to YouTube one week ago, having been viewed nearly 2.5 million times.

The cute youngster eventually manages to murmur 'Dad', but can only do so while chuckling to herself
Mick commented on the video: 'I shot this on the eve of my daughter Maddie’s first birthday. My wife had originally asked me to put together a photo montage of baby’s first year (yes, I’m 'that guy’ in our family) but I settled on doing an interview instead.
'The original idea was to conduct one every birthday as a sort of year in review to have as a digital keepsake.
'I just hope she gets better at taking direction when she’s older.'
