The word 'cookie' is derived from the Dutch word 'koekje,' meaning 'small or little cake.' Apparently, the first historic record of cookies was describing their use as test cakes.
What happened was a small amount of cake batter was baked once in order to test the temperature of the oven. Then rather than waste the batter, it was baked again along with the larger cake, and it would often come out crispy.
