Biscuit
1 aUS : a small quick bread made from dough that has been rolled out and cut or dropped from a spoon. While both types of biscuit use the same handful of ingredients and are quick to prepare, drop biscuits don’t rely on any of the finicky steps rolled biscuits require to get them just right.— Sandra Wu
