A cookie is an old Earth food item usually made of water, flour, sugar, and other ingredients, and baked in an oven. Cookies are sweet, and are served as a snack or for dessert.

Shannon O'Donnell had a ritual of purchasing a bag of chocolate chip cookies whenever she went back on the road to "treat herself". Her eventual husband, Henry Janeway, preferred oatmeal cookies since he was allergic to chocolate. (VOY: "11:59")

In 2371, the Caretaker offered the crew of the USS Voyager that he abducted lemonade and sugar cookies. (VOY: "Caretaker")

In the script for TNG: "Family", Marie Picard walked into Jean-Luc Picard and Robert Picard (both drenched in mud after a fight) at the dinner table eating cheese and fruit, and "they look up like children caught with their hands in the cookie jar".
