biscuit and cookie

Have u ever made cookies? Recently, I often make cookies at home because I can control the quantity of sugar and I can save quantity of eating. formed cookies look very cute and it is good for present. How about biscuit?

Do you know the difference between biscuit and cookie?

Actually, it depends on where in the world you live, but in US, cookie is a small, flat baked pastry and biscuit is a kind of crisp dry bread.

Biscuit derives from the Latin, bis coctus. It means 'twice baked'. biscuit used to be the part of Ancient Roman armies' raitons.

In English speaking countries, biscuit was reassigned to denate a small, soft quick leavened bread product served piping hot.

The word 'cookie' is come from Dutch, 'kokje'. Later, the word cookie is from England. now cookie is added a lot of sugar and butter, but that style of cookie was not common until 18th century.
