Happy National Cookie Month! The American use is derived from Dutch koekje "little cake," which is a diminutive of "koek" ("cake"), which came from the Middle Dutch word "koke". The Girl Scouts first began selling cookies In the 1920s. The U.S. has a National Cookie Cutter Historical Museum located within the Joplin Museum Complex in Joplin, Missouri. Early American tinsmiths began making cookie cutters by hand back in the 1700s. Christmas cookies date back to Medieval Europe. American cookie jars evolved from British biscuit jars and first appeared on the scene during the Depression in the 1930s when housewives began making more cookies at home, rather than buying them at the bakery, and needed containers for them. 🍪 #NationalCookieMonth #FoodConsultant #FoodService #FoodServiceSolutions #FoodSales #Food #FoodDude #WeKnowFood #FoodOfTheMonth #NobertSales @NobertSales (at Germantown, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkOMkx1g4ND/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
