Cakes are better than cookies because cakes provide for different versatility, with the cakes layers and frostings which allow for many different flavor combinations and textures, which can be from fluffy and light to moist and dense.
Both cakes and cookies offer a wide range of textures and flavors and can be adapted to suit individual dietary needs.
Cookies taste so good as a result of the chemical reaction which occurs during baking of the cookies.
The combination of carbohydrates, fats and the contrasting flavors and the texture of the ingredients all contribute to the deliciousness of the cookies.
When cookie batter is baked the ingredients undergo chemical reactions which create molecules which we perceive as delicious.
A Maillard reaction occurs when amino acids and reducing sugars react, which produces a toasted and nutty flavor.
Also the combination of carbohydrates and fats in cookies activate the brain's reward center.
