Hi,

You could say 'Here, have one'. 'Here' is a word that is often used with the act of giving.

I don't see why the comma rules out "please." "Please have one" may not need a comma grammatically, but personally I see no problem with inserting one to indicate that the speaker paused after "please." "Please, have one" seems fine to me.

Best wishes, Clive
