She also took a seat behind the desk of Mariska Hargitay’s character, Olivia Benson, while using a phone.
In a playful touch, the nameplate on the desk was replaced with a handwritten sign that read 'Capt. Chanel' instead of 'Capt. Olivia Benson.'
'Oh no @babychanelnicole is taking over @nbclawandorder,' Coco wrote. 'Watch out directors, camera men [sic] and even Olivia Benson's spot! Don't sleep on this chick! She does it all!'
Chanel's day on set comes after the couple revealed she obtained an agent in January.
'You know Chanel and Ryan Buggle [who plays Noah, son of Mariska Hargitay's Olivia Benson] have the same agents. We didn’t even know that. She just got an agent,' Coco, 44, told People.
'Chanel wanted to be here tonight. She's mad at us right now,' Ice-T, 65, added. 'She looked at the babysitter like, "Really?! Really?"'
According to her Instagram, the youngster - who walked in New York Fashion Week last year - is signed to the Zuri Agency.
Asked if his daughter would ever make a cameo his hit show, the rapper happily told People 'Hell yeah!'

It comes just four months after Chanel walked in the Rookie USA fashion show as part of New York Fashion Week.
Chanel was one of 100 children to make their way down the runway during the 13th annual event benefitting the non-profit Moms for Moms NYC.
Coco documented their little girl's first-ever NYFW experience on her Instagram Story, telling her followers that they were 'ready to see Chanel walk that runway!'
The proud parents were seated front row with their close friend, rapper Treach, as Chanel modeled two kid-friendly looks.
She also captured footage of Chanel looking like a total pro while getting her hair and makeup done backstage.
In August, the star - who doesn't employ nannies - revealed their key to good parenting was doling out 'parental guidance - not necessarily parental control, but guidance to help them understand.'
'We do our parenting. I think the thing of it is, it's Ice-T and Coco. Our parenting is a lot different than the normal, square couple from Oklahoma,' Ice-T (born Tracy Marrow) explained to People.
'I'm a f***ing rock star, it’s different. We're like the Osbournes. We have a different dynamic in our house. But it's not harmful. That's the main thing. It's us.'

The Law & Order: SVU actor and the Tarzana-born, Albuquerque-raised bombshell make sure to monitor and control little Chanel's activity on Instagram where she's already amassed 444K followers.
'It's fun and she likes doing it. If she didn't, we definitely wouldn't do it,' Ice-T clarified.
'Now, at some point, Chanel might say, "Daddy or Mommy, I don't want to be on social media" and we'll stop. But she's a normal kid. She wants to do her TikToks and her Reels.'
