I would say http only is your first culprit but this can also occur by not setting the scope of your cookie.

If the site has been redirected from another domain, you will need to look into setting the scope of the cookie. Domain and Path defines the scope of the cookie, which URLs the cookie should be sent to. Depending on this, you might not see the cookie in your response.

I ran across this issue when setting a cookie on a successful SAML SSO login and couldn't retrieve the cookie from the Document because it was never send as part of the request.
