Try these lines for add an entry to the cookie:

     Cookie cookie = new Cookie("name",id);
     cookie.setMaxAge(maxAge);
     cookie.setPath("/xyzPath");
     ((HttpServletResponse) facesContext.getExternalContext().getResponse()).addCookie(cookie);

And these lines for retrieve an entry from the cookie:

for (Cookie cookie : ((HttpServletRequest) facesContext. getExternalContext() .getRequest()).getCookies()) {
if(cookie.getName().equals("name")){...}
}

Balázs Bakai thanks for your replay.
i tried  this code but the length of the cookies array is 1
and this cookie is jsessionid
Unfortunately there is no cookie added.
