Save And Retrieve Fckeditor Value In Cookies?

I want to save fckeditor value in cookies. And fckeditor have value as " Hi <name>, and so on .." I am using following code :

My Code:

Save:
private void CookiesCreated()
{
//Create a new cookie, passing the name
HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie("BodyText");
//Set the cookies value
cookie.Value = Server.HtmlEncode(fckeditor.Value);
//Set the cookie to expire in 1 minute
cookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(1);
//Add the cookie
Response.Cookies.Add(cookie);
}
Retrieve:
if (Request.Cookies["BodyText"] != null)
{
fckeditor.Value = Server.HtmlDecode(Request.Cookies["BodyText"].Value);
}

But i am uncomfortable to get the original value, i am getting only (<) this.
