Learn More About The Cookies Drawing

The word cookie comes from a Dutch word meaning "little cake." Cookies are generally flat sweet pastries. Outside of North America, cookies are often called "biscuits."

Ancient cookies were often not as sweet as the modern variety. They have, though, been popular for millennia. The crisp texture makes them long-lasting and able to travel well.

Sweet cookies date to at least the seventh century in Persia. By the fourteenth century, everyone in Europe, from peasants to royalty, enjoyed cookies.

Did you know that there are different classifications of cookies? Bar cookies, such as brownies, are baked and sliced.

Drop cookies, such as chocolate chip cookies, are made from soft dough that spreads when baked.

Rolled cookies, such as sugar and gingerbread cookies, are cut from stiff dough using a cookie cutter.

Sandwich cookies, such as Oreos, consist of a sweet filling between two cookies.

Cookies have long played a role in popular culture. Children often present gifts of milk and cookies to Santa Claus on Christmas night.

There are even cartoon characters based on cookies, such as Kooky Cookie and Candy Cookie of the Shopkins collectible toy line.
