2 piece (medium) of Biscuit Cookie (28 g) has 134 calories. That works out to 480 calories per 100 g. It contains 20.2 g of carbs, 1.7 g of protein, 5.6 g of fat and 0.6 g of fiber. Its glycemic index is 70 (high), so it raises blood sugar quickly.
Biscuit cookie is a small, sweet baked treat, typically made with flour, sugar and fat. Recipes vary, but may also use egg or dairy; the result is often round, lightly browned and finely crumbed, as in the pictured version.
Its dry, tender texture makes it easy to enjoy with tea or coffee, as a snack or alongside a simple dessert. It is mostly a source of energy from refined flour and sugar, with little fibre and a modest amount of protein. Pair one with fruit for a more balanced snack, or serve it with a hot drink when you want a simple sweet bite.

A biscuit cookie is a small, crisp baked sweet; recipes may mix crushed biscuits into the dough or use them in another way. The exact ingredients and texture vary, so the recipe matters when you are trying to identify a particular version.
You make a biscuit cookie by combining the recipe’s dry ingredients with fat and egg, shaping the dough, and baking it. If the recipe calls for crushed biscuits, fold them in near the end so they keep some texture.
A biscuit cookie can spread if its dough is too soft or the oven has not reached the right temperature. Chilling the dough before baking and spacing the portions on the tray helps the cookies hold their shape.
Let biscuit cookies cool completely, then store them in an airtight container. Closing the container while they are warm traps moisture and softens them; briefly warming softened cookies in the oven can help restore some crispness.
Yes, you can freeze biscuit cookie dough. Freeze shaped portions separately so they do not stick together; thawing before baking can help the cookies spread and bake more evenly, depending on the recipe.
A biscuit cookie turns out soft when it is underbaked, has a moist dough, or absorbs humidity after baking. For a crunchier result, bake until the edges are golden and cool the cookies fully before storing them.
Tea and coffee both pair well with a biscuit cookie. Its dry, crisp texture is especially suited to a hot drink, and it can also be served with fruit or a simple dessert as an occasional sweet.
Yes, some biscuit cookie recipes use crushed biscuits in the dough. Crush them to the texture the recipe specifies; very fine crumbs make a denser cookie, while larger pieces leave more crunch.
Biscuit cookies are better treated as an occasional sweet than an everyday staple because they contain refined flour and sugar. Pairing one with a more filling snack can make the eating occasion more balanced.
Biscuit cookies may raise blood sugar because they contain refined flour and sugar. People with diabetes should fit the portion into their individual meal plan and ask their dietitian or clinician if they need help deciding how.
