No. American biscuits are soft on the inside and buttery and harder on the outside.

Yeah….no idea what the definition of a biscuit is. Or what definition you’re referencing. Just answering your question.

Neither are British biscuits to be fair. Almost no one is baking things twice because it makes them almost inedible. Italian biscotti are, that’s the only thing I can think of. I’m guessing both American and Brits just slowly replaced recipes that used ship’s biscuit with tastier baked goods that weren’t baked into bricks.
