About

Jamaicans have nice thick water biscuits that are used both as biscuits and in cooking,, but you could use any kind for this crackersnack. It’s a little treat, a pick-me-up that you can serve with a drink or just when you feel hungry. ‘Cutters’ are little round sandwiches eaten in the Caribbean and this is my quick and easy version.
