You will need to subclass QNetworkCookieJar and in that class you should implement your own persistent storage.

class MyNetworkCookieJar : public QNetworkCookieJar {

public: 

bool saveCookiesToDisk() {
// .. my implementation
return true; // if i did
}

bool loadCookiesFromDisk() {
// .. load from disk
return false; // if unable to.
}
}

The sample application from Qt project implements a persistent cookie store, it could be a good starting point for you: http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qt/trees/4.8/demos/browser

look at cookiejar.h and cookiejar.cpp
