Definition
Plural of cookey; multiple small sweet baked goods or pastries.
Etymology
The plural form of 'cookey,' an older spelling variant of 'cookie.' Follows regular English pluralization by adding '-s' to the singular form.
Kelly Says
Spelling variants like 'cookey' instead of 'cookie' show that English spelling wasn't standardized until the 1800s—before that, people spelled words however seemed reasonable, making historical texts wonderfully chaotic.
