Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Softness in cookies is typically contrasted with crispness, where a soft cookie has a tender, moist texture, and a crisp cookie has a dry, crunchy texture. Chewiness is a different texture attribute, referring to the cookie's resistance to being bitten through, which is not the opposite of softness. Spread refers to how much a cookie expands during baking, which is unrelated to its texture in terms of softness or crispness.
