Dream About Cookies

I am going to share what your cookie dream means. When I was growing up there was two keywords that happened every evening and that was “mum can I have milk and cookies.” I have since extended this tradition to my own children.

This was a standard snack (for me) before bed. This could include digestives, chocolate chip cookies, ginger nut cookies or even just plain rich tea. I must say that normally “chocolate” featured in the biscuits was reserved for very special occasions and parties. As an adult, I have had many dreams about the odd Jammy Dodger or Cookie and this has resulted in my research into what cookies mean symbolically and what this means in our dreams.

Dreams Of Cookies Mean Childhood Influences

I do feel that cookies are intrinsically associated with childhood energy but also happiness in dreams. We often remember our mother baking a set of cookies and the warm smell of the sweet dough can sometimes haunt our dreams - positively of course! I connect this dream with reliving our childhood – hopes and dreams and how we want to uncover what is happening to us in our daily life.

What does it mean to dream about cookies?

In many dream books (Sigmund Freud) in particular, cookies are often associated with connecting different lessons and stages in life.

  • Eaten cookies.
  • Received cookies.

  • Baked cookies.

Positive changes are afoot if

  • You are happy to receive or give cookies.

Type of cookie featured in your dream

Obviously, the type of cookie featured in the dream is equally important. If you are dreaming of sweet cookies this can suggest that you will be taking on a new project going forward. To dream of plain biscuit (like rich tea or digestives) can indicate a fresh start.

Female figure associated with the cookie

To see mother, grandmother baking cookies reinforces your relationship with a female in waking life. We often see mother and child baking cookies in many films, representing the bond of family. This is quite interesting from a spiritual perspective. Significantly, the cookie featured in a dream can lift our spirits.

Is the dream good or bad?

Cookies can represent spoiling something. I believe this dream is good. But, the important aspect to note that cookies equally represents spoiling our dinner. From a psychological perspective, we can turn this on the head so that the dream denotes that the cookies can also represent something “good” might spoil something in your waking life.

Therefore, the cookie dream symbolism could constitute something good as well as something bad. I do feel that life experiences should be reviewed after you've had a dream about a cookie this will result in many negative aspects.

I am going to briefly talk about chocolate chip cookie symbolism. Chocolate chip cookies symbolize gifts from others. If someone offers you a cookie can often be a symbolism that they're offering you something. For example if you're in a meeting somebody offers you a cookie this can mean you may take something. By accepting the cookie you may take the “offer” on the table. If you however refuse the cookie it can mean that you're likely to refuse the offer that the person has given.

Receiving cookies from someone in a dream may indicate that you are mildly irritated with what that person does. There may be several things as well that you do not like about that person.

Here are some older dream meanings of cookies from folklore

Dreaming of plenty of cookies symbolize happiness but also small, trivial problems.
The cookie is sweet and indicates possible sweet times. But if you dreamed of burning cookies in an oven this indicates there maybe problems that can cause you stress as well as objects of desire.

Cookies represent small matters that just seem to crop up wherever you are. These may cause you to worry all the time. Feeling anxious while eating these cookies confirms this worry in real life. You may feel anxious about daily matters which seem small but eat up a lot of your patience and time.

Having someone give cookies like this to you mean you view that person as an annoyance. Giving cookies to someone may mean you are the one who gives problems to other people.

Indulging in cookies may mean that you are also indulging or living a part of your life in excess. You may feel guilty while eating the cookie. You may also feel unsatisfied even if you’ve already eaten a lot of cookies in the dream.

Eating different kinds of cookies can also mean different things. Eating an indulgent chocolate chip cookie with lots of other toppings may mean you are over-indulging in real life and that you like rich things too much. Eating plain cookies may mean that you need to treat yourself once in a while to better and more luxurious things.

Cookies may also represent desires, especially if in your dream you are trying to reach for cookies. Struggling to reach for cookies may symbolize your difficulty in achieving your goals. Having someone take the cookie from you may mean that someone else is getting what you want.

As I have already mentioned baking cookies on the other hand represents a warm and happy feeling. You may be baking for someone or simply baking by yourself. Overall this means you are content and happy. When you bake cookies and give it to someone, this means that you deeply care about that person. Baking cookies may also signify that good things are about to come from your hard work.

Cookies may represent many things, but what is important is how you feel when you dream about these cookies. An overall anxious or uneasy feeling will point out to worries, while a happy feeling will point out good things to come.
