Does the expression cook money exist? If it does, what does it mean?

Good morning Daemon, never heard it before. Maybe it should be " dinner money ", the money a child takes to school to pay for school meals.?

Thanks Bill!

I meant cook money as in "He's been cooking money with that new scheme he came up with"

Daemon, the extra content does help. It means he has been making money by dishonest schemes.
