Butter/egg yolk to keep the dough intact and very little moisture (water)

Water evaporates to create fluffiness. Generally that's good (in cakes, in puffed snacks, etc.) but cookies are supposed to be dense.
What ingredients do cookies require to be a cookie?

Cookie dough is one part sugar, two parts fat, and 3 parts flour.

I was always told that a cookie over a certain size would be characterized as a cake anyway.

Hm. I've always been told the difference was a matter of consistency and proportion. *NM*

It seems to me that a cake is spongier, while a cookie will become crisp after it cools

I put 'drop' chocolate chip cookie dough on a baking tray and into the oven.
