It's the last one...Even though they smelled delicious, the children didn't eat the cookies

The correct option is the last one: Even though they smelled delicious, the children didn't eat the cookies.

This sentence contains a misplaced modifier as it is saying that the children smelled delicious, but the intention of the speaker is to refer to the smell of the cookies. Therefore, the modifier should be placed in a way it modifies the word cookies.

Modifiers such as adjectives always modifies nouns and not adverbs.
