If you are using BigIP v12 or later, use the 

HTTP::cookie attribute

command.

Please note: you will need to prepend a " " to the attribute being inserted until this is fixed in a future release.

foreach cookie_name $cookie_names {
  HTTP::cookie attribute $cookie_name remove domain
  HTTP::cookie attribute $cookie_name insert " Domain" ".my_domain.org"
}
