Incidentally, the pure chocolate chip cookie is most often sold as American Cookie!

But the cookie clicker was a pure associative jump I have to admit - it wasn’t my first contact with chocolate cookies :)

But traditionally the hike baked cookies have a huge variety especially around Christmas. There really are several items that I personally would not count as cookie but which are called that regionally apparently. Vanillekipferl from the south or Kokosmakronen from I have no idea where.
