"A century-old, golden biscuit which was stolen from a famous biscuit factory has been returned safely. The large gilded emblem has hung above the German Bahlsen biscuit company&amp;#039;s HQ since 1913 - but went missing last week.   A ransom note appeared in a local newspaper which read: &amp;quot;I have the cookie! And you want it&amp;quot; alongside a picture of a man dressed as Sesame Street&amp;#039;s Cookie Monster clutching the Leibniz biscuit. The self-styled Cookie Monster extortionist demanded the firm donate biscuits to sick children in hospitals across Hanover for its safe return. However, a week later, the 20kg golden emblem was discovered wrapped in a red ribbon hanging from a monument of a horse in front of Hanover University.  A new note attached read: &amp;quot;Because Werni [company chairman], like me, so loves the biscuit, and is now always crying and misses the biscuit so much, I&amp;#039;m giving it back.&amp;quot; Werni Bahlsen had agreed to the ransom last week, promising to donate 52,000 packets of biscuits, but there have been no further details on when the demands will be officially met. The company dismissed rumours that it was a publicity stunt. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
