Well, these are kind of cookie-like, but nobody calls them cookies. They're mainly used as an ingredient in making nanner puddin'.

Depending on the region, biscuits are also dumplings, but only when they're flat and used in soup.

The stuff that people are responding to you with makes me think they don't really have these? Or are these all considered cookies or maybe their literal names like Scotch Fingers?

This. If you say biscuits and gravy, Brits think of brown gravy on cookies, which naturally horrifies us southerners.
