    egrep -ir --include=*.{php,html,js} "(document.cookie|setcookie)" .
    

    The r flag means to search recursively (search subdirectories). The i flag means case insensitive.

    If you just want file names add the l (lowercase L) flag:

    egrep -lir --include=*.{php,html,js} "(document.cookie|setcookie)" .
