Actually, we have both jam and jelly; whether it's jam or jelly depends on its consistancy. In America, a cookie is always sweet, and biscuit usually refers to a kind of white roll without a browned crust, nor springy, well held together insides, which is usually broken in half (as cleanly as possible for a bread of the nature I just described); this bread is more likely salty than sweet and is commonly served with butter or jam/jelly/preserves for breakfast with eggs and sausage, with fried chicken, or by itself with gravy. It should be noted, however, that certain breads that if they were sweeter would be called cookies are also called biscuits.
