Nutritional Information<\/h2>\r\n
While Butter Biscuits are a treat enjoyed for their rich flavor, they are also high in butter and sugar, so they should be consumed in moderation. The cookies provide a satisfying snack that pairs well with tea or coffee.<\/p>\r\n
Storage<\/h2>\r\n
Store Butter Biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. They can also be frozen for longer storage. Just make sure to let them cool completely before placing them in a freezer-safe bag or container.<\/p>\r\n
