Ate cookie with coffee started coughing while trying to swallow now i feel a tickle in my throat. is it possible i inhaled something?

Unlikely: If you inhaled something you would still be coughing. The tickle is likely irritated tissue from the cough or the cookie or an unrelated early viral illness.
