Biscuit cookies
Description
Biscuit cookies are thin, crunchy biscuits with a golden, slightly grainy appearance and a subtly sweet, buttery-vanilla flavor. They are usually flat and evenly baked, with a crispy texture that easily crumbles when in contact with beverages, making them a versatile addition to tea and coffee. Nutritionally, biscuits mainly provide simple carbohydrates and fats, small amounts of protein, and quickly available energy for snacking; whole grain versions contain more fiber, and enriched flours can provide minerals and vitamins. In the kitchen, they work well as a standalone snack, a base for cheesecake crusts, a crumble for desserts, an addition to yogurts and mousses, as well as an ingredient in cookie bars. They should be stored in an airtight container in a dry, cool place, away from moisture and strong odors; for longer storage, they can be frozen to maintain their crunchiness.
