I had the same problem: This gets, sets or delete cookies:

func showCookies() {

    let cookieStorage = NSHTTPCookieStorage.sharedHTTPCookieStorage()
    //println("policy: \(cookieStorage.cookieAcceptPolicy.rawValue)")

    let cookies = cookieStorage.cookies as! [NSHTTPCookie]
    println("Cookies.count: \(cookies.count)")
    for cookie in cookies {
        var cookieProperties = [String: AnyObject]()

        cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookieName] = cookie.name
        cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookieValue] = cookie.value
        cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookieDomain] = cookie.domain
        cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookiePath] = cookie.path
        cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookieVersion] = NSNumber(integer: cookie.version)
        cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookieExpires] = cookie.expiresDate
        cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookieSecure] = cookie.secure

        // Setting a Cookie
        if let newCookie = NSHTTPCookie(properties: cookieProperties) {
            // Made a copy of cookie (cookie can't be set)
            println("Newcookie: \(newCookie)")
            NSHTTPCookieStorage.sharedHTTPCookieStorage().setCookie(newCookie)
        }
        println("ORGcookie: \(cookie)")
    }
}

func deleteCookies() {

    let cookieStorage = NSHTTPCookieStorage.sharedHTTPCookieStorage()
    let cookies = cookieStorage.cookies as! [NSHTTPCookie]
    println("Cookies.count: \(cookies.count)")
    for cookie in cookies {
        println("name: \(cookie.name) value: \(cookie.value)")
        NSHTTPCookieStorage.sharedHTTPCookieStorage().deleteCookie(cookie)
    }

    //Create newCookie: You need all properties, because else newCookie will be nil (propertie are then invalid)
    var cookieProperties = [String: AnyObject]()
    cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookieName] = "locale"
    cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookieValue] = "nl_NL"
    cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookieDomain] = "www.digitaallogboek.nl"
    cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookiePath] = "/"
    cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookieVersion] = NSNumber(integer: 0)
    cookieProperties[NSHTTPCookieExpires] = NSDate().dateByAddingTimeInterval(31536000)
    var newCookie = NSHTTPCookie(properties: cookieProperties)
    println("\(newCookie)")
    NSHTTPCookieStorage.sharedHTTPCookieStorage().setCookie(newCookie!)
}
