well I'm just going by what I see here. They have moist cookies and hard cookies, but they call all biscuit type things cookies because biscuits here are like scones in England

confused yet?

Americans say cooky as a corruption of the Dutch koekje, which means little cake.

Biscuit in French is more accurately a small cake. Many French people would call what we call biscuits, gateaux.

There, that should send spuddy completely over the edge. Here come the men in white coats. :D :shock: :wink:

I'm safe at the moment as they are a bit busy. There was a hit n run murder this morning at our local hospital and everyone is running around like idiots. I wonder of they'll have cookies with their tea at break times and what they'll consider them to be?
I wonder what wikipedia says a cookie is?
