Pricing will depend on a variety of things.
You should consider what your customer base is. Are already selling foods, like at a deli, bakery or other food establishment
Are you selling at a fund raiser? Where you sell your product will have an impact on the price. What are competitors getting for a similar product? Do a market analysis or survey. If your product is significantly better and you can Justify it's status and superiority you may be able to charge more.
The price and pricing calculations will depend on several things.
First check and see what you market will bear, what is usual?, Where do you want to fit in, elite and pricey,"You will probably sell less and make more per item. Cost or value, sell for less and sell a higher amount. This can be tricky finding a price that will yield sales and sales dollars.
What is your cost to make the cookie? What are the raw materials costing, packaging materials and all direct costs? What are the fixed costs(labor overhead ect.)
If you are already selling food then you probably already have a formula for raw goods and mark up to hit a specific profit yield. (cost plus pricing)If you do not then you have more to consider.
Find your cost to make your basis for pricing, find you profit or mark up, based on what is customary for your business and born by your market.
Check you competitors.
Adjust your pricing to meet your needs.
So if your cost of raw goods is 10.00 and your typical cost plus is 150% and your batch yeilds 20 cookies your price would be .75 and your cost of raw goods is .50.
Check out the competitors, determine the size of the cookie and what yeild that is. Subtract the cost of raw goods and you will know what they are marking up for fixed costs+profit.

It depends on where you live. You can change more if you live in an area where the cost of living is high, like New York, Boston, SF. Also, you can charge more if you use premium ingredients. Check to find out what local bakeries sell their cookie for, and base your price on that

It's all in the packaging. If you come up with a really solid branding for your cookie, rave about your all natural organic ingredients, sell it at a upmarket mall, nothing can stop you from selling one big cookie for 5 bucks.

in Singapore, cookies are usually sold in grams.
but if you bake big cookies to sell, any price between 60 cents to 2 bucks would be great. work on the packaging and marketing.
