Good question! I guess it would be whoever also invented cakes and bread and stuff. Cookies just evolved.
P.S. My coworker just broke out in hives after eating a Mrs. Fields cookie! Yikes!
Its name derives from the Dutch word koekje which means little cake, and arrived in the English language via the Scots language, rather than directly from the Dutch. In Scottish English the word denotes a small scone-like cake or bun, often filled with cream.
Cookies were first made from little pieces of cake batter that were cooked separately in order to test oven temperature. The ancestor of the cookie is said to have come from Persia (from the Persian kooluchih) in the 7th century according to many sources.

probably a sloppy baker spilled cake batter in the stove and voila, cookies!
