A cookie is a small, flat, sweet or savory baked food product, usually made from flour, eggs, sugar, and/or butter, cooking oil, and other oils or fats. Consuming cookies can be part of a balanced diet, thanks to the energy provided by their macronutrients and the vitamins and minerals they contain.
The advantage of cookies is that their energy contribution is easily adjustable. This allows you to choose the amount you consume at any given time. That is why they are ideal on their own or combined with other foods: milk, yogurt, fresh cheeses, fruits, juices, jams, or chocolates.
