Butter Biscuits

Butter Biscuits are unleavened cookies consisting of butter, flour and sugar. They are often categorized as “crisp cookies" due to their texture, caused in part because of the quantity of butter used. Butter biscuits are flavoured with vanilla, chocolate, and coconut, and/or topped with sugar crystals. They also come in a variety of shapes such as circles, squares, ovals, rings, and pretzel-like forms, and with a variety of appearances, including marbled, checkered or plain. It is also called ‘Makhania.’
