As there appears a slight disagreement it’s time to have it out once and for all.

A difficult choice but it has to be Milk Chocolate Digestive for me but I would be happy with most of the ‘normal’ ones listed that we all grew up with 😋

Jaffa cake orange ONLY though The clue is in the title, Cake, so has to be disqualified. They took the tax man to court to avoid paying tax on the cake. Tax man said it was a biscuit, the tax man lost🍰 What about Custard Creams? |

Chocolate biscuits? How bourgeoisie!
Up north, stale bread with dripping is a treat.

I remember that. Ice Cream vans being broken into overnight. Wafer junkies going cold turkey and being offered wafer substitutes on the NHS. Let's hope we never see the like again.

Cannot believe there are no Tunnocks on that list I buy the large packs, only recently tried dark chocolate because they had no milk. I wasn't sure I'd like them but there wasn't much difference. Since we can't vote for them I've gone for overpriced bollocks, Loacker Original Milk Tortina Wafers. Don't suppose they're a biscuit either 😉 Jaffa cakes used to be better with a thicker slice of the orange bit but then Club bars were once thick chocolate, now they look like they have been sprayed with a thin undercoat and cleverly shaped at the top to look thick. |

I’ve gone for the designer overpriced biscuits.
M&S Extremely Chocolatey Milk Chocolate Rounds.
By the way Jaffa cakes are not biscuits. As mentioned it was decided legally for VAT reasons. Basically a biscuit is originally hard and becomes soft when stale, whereas a cake is the opposite.

A biscuit thats cooked only once is a cookie. |

You won’t have these over there, but these are my current grocery store favorite. Trader Joe’s is a chain here like Aldi, and was in fact, started by the Aldi, founders brother. Their Chocolate Chip Dunkers are fantastic. I assume they’re called dunkers because they are engineered to dip easily in a glass of milk. They don’t look like much, but are so good.  |

Those Dutch Stroopwaffle things. Aldi or Lidl have them from time to time.
Not seen them for a while here but Timtams and a cup of tea. Those that know, know.

I voted chocolate hobnob, with the right amount of tea I can get through a whole dunked packet in one sitting, one at a time of course. Try doing that with jaffas without vomiting. Mind you I think you only get 5 in a pack nowadays. I do like the harrods shortbread in a tin though, treat myself to a pack every time I go to the airport……
If you had Danish butter cookies on the list that would have won in my book, I can eat those till I puke. 🤮

The greatest chocolate covered biscuit is the Kit Kat.
It's 87 years old.
