Biscuity

Biscuity cookies are a type of cookie characterized by their crisp, dry texture, which distinguishes them from softer, chewier varieties. These cookies often have a buttery, slightly sweet flavor with a hint of vanilla or almond. The key to achieving their signature texture is a combination of precise baking times and ingredients like flour, butter, and sugar, often with the inclusion of eggs to bind the dough. Popular examples include shortbread and biscotti. They are perfect for dipping in tea or coffee, as they retain their shape and provide a satisfying crunch.
