The term “cookies” is used to refer to a type of biscuit characterized by a softer, chewy texture, and sometimes a slight crunchiness. These biscuits result in shapes that are not too uniform, giving a more casual impression. Cookies are often adorned with various toppings such as chocolate chips, nuts, or pieces of dried fruit to add flavor and texture variety. These biscuits are popular as snacks or treats and have many recipe variations that can be customized according to personal preferences.
