Cookie Country is the first level of Kirby's Return to Dream Land and Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe.
General Information[]
Cookie Country takes place in grasslands and forests, with lush vegetation and flowers galore. Kirby can use Super Abilities to clear the way in some stages, revealing dimensional rifts.
Cookie Country contains five stages. The mid-boss of Stages 1 and 4 is Sphere Doomer; the mid-boss of Stage 2 is Gigant Edge. The boss of Cookie Country is Whispy Woods, who guards the Oars of the Lor Starcutter.
Cookie Country contains the game's first HAL Room, located in Stage 4. In the first area with falling rocks, Kirby must touch the right edge of the screen (without entering the nearby door) and then go left. A huge chunk of land will be depleted and replaced with a secret door.

Trivia[]
- In Kirby Star Allies, when playing Guest Star Magolor: Best Friends Forever, some of the stage layout in Level 1 is changed to reflect Stage 1 of Cookie Country. The Another Dimension sequence is replicated, and the Sphere Doomer is represented by a Bronto Burt Room Guarder.
- In Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, a Donpuffle, Cappy, Bouncy, and two Bronto Burts were added at the end of Stage 3.
