Another view point
Baked biscuits, since they are a type of bread, would be low risk and very unlikely to grow any pathogenic microorganisms. Baked yeast bread and quick breads are frequently stored out of the refrigerator with no health concerns. Package them to prevent drying out. Freeze them if they aren't going to be used up within couple days to prevent mold growth.

Anzac biscuit were so famous and still are because of the Anzac's that fought for us. These biscuits were basically the only thing they could make as they didnt have much food to live on or make anything with.

Is biscuit mix good if the date is expired?
If it smells ok, it should be fine. I had some that was pretty old and made some biscuits. Should have smelled the mix first cause it tasted terrible!
Quick breads such as muffins, unlike yeast breads, can be baked immediately after the ingredients are mixed. In other words, there is no need to wait for leavening to occur before baking the muffins because they rise during baking. Therefore, they are relatively quick to make. Yeast breads on the other hand require a lot of time for leavening before baking and are much more time consuming.

What is the purpose of Anzac biscuits?
The ANZAC biscuits were so named because they were made by the women at home and sold to buy small necessities and luxuries for the ANZAC troops (Australian and New Zealand Army Coros) in World War I. These little "comforts of home" included things like soap, toothpaste, pencils, books and lollies.
The ANZAC biscuits were also sent to the troops because, being flat and made with oats and syrup, they travelled well and lasted longer, unlike standard cakes and biscuits. Originally the biscuits were called "soldiers' biscuits", and only gained the name "ANZAC biscuits" towards the end of the war, long after the unsuccessful Gallipoli campaign. It was an expression of patriotic pride in the Australian and New Zealand troops serving overseas.
It's a race, presumably an urban myth, whereby a circle of lads wank onto a biscuit. The last one to ejeculate, eats the thing. I hear Englishmen are very good at the game, and never have to eat the biscuit. Or at least that's what their wives tell me.
What is the meaning of biscuit and doughnut cutter?
When you make biscuits (the kind in the US that are sort of like light weight scones or shortbread, not the UK "cookies"), you pat or roll out the dough into a sheet and then cut the round biscuits from the dough. When you cut them, because the dough is tender, you need a nice clean and straight edge that cuts sharply or the sides will pinch together and the biscuits then will not rise properly during baking. Some people say you can cut the biscuits with the rim of a drinking glass, but that pushes the edges together at the bottom, "sealing" them, and then they can end up like hockey pucks instead of biscuits.
The tool for the job of cutting biscuits properly is called a biscuit cutter. They usually have a handle on top of a round aluminum form with straight sides that will easily cut through the dough without pinching. Some of them also have a center smaller round piece that is removable. You put it in place when you want to cut out doughnuts and the center circle cuts out the doughnut holes all in one motion.
What is another name for sweetened biscuits?
Well, the answer rather depends on whether or not you are English or American. As a Texan, who is also a bit of an Anglophile, I will answer it both ways.
If you are American, then by 'biscuits' you must mean our good-ole baking-soda style biscuits that we like to slather butter, jelly or gravy on. Then the answer would be a 'scone' which is from Great Britain and Ireland and the like. They come in a variety of flavors like plain, blueberry, cranberry, cinnamon, etc. They, too, get slathered with jams and jellies and a must is clotted cream, which is a sinfully lushious cream with a heavy weight behind it.
Now, if you're an Englishman (or woman), then the answer would be 'cookies'. They come in too numerous to mention flavors, but our favorites would probably be chocolate chip or a plain butter, but again, a bunch of flavors out there and most cookies are round and flat, but some are puffy and light. Pretty much all are yummy! And, as a note, 'crackers' or 'saltines' are our salty biscuits. Oh, and Americans: if you ask for a 'cracker' over there, you'll get something entirely different! :)
Hope that helps!

What biscuits are made with almonds?
The most well known almond flavoured biscuit is called "Amoretto". :)
What is the function of salt in a biscuit?
No it's not necessary, because scone recipes generally have a large amount of baking powder or soda, which results in a salt. The butter used in the scone recipe may also be salted. Some people add further salt as they feel it rounds out the flavour.
Is a biscuit a element mixture or compound?
Peanut butter is a homogeneous mixture because it mixes oil and the peanut butter
Additional answer
You obviously don't know what an element is. It is a substance that cannot be broken down into another substance by chemical processes. Hydrogen, neon, iron, cobalt, uranium are all examples of elements.
