So, everyone knows my love for bourbon biscuits, and my excitement when I discovered that original oreos are dairy free, well I need you to share my excitement when I discovered today that I can also eat hob nobs and rich tea (not overly fussed about the rich tea) but the hob nobs!!!

So.. What's your favourite biscuit? Do you dunk or not dunk?

Hobnobs!!!! Hobnobs are the king of biscuits as far as I'm concerned. Got to be dunked but you need an extra large cuppa!

My favourite are the ones you get from Lidls - and Tesco etc - they're foreign bikkies with lots of dark choc on the top...drools.....* a tip from Flo*....with chocky bix....if you keep them in the freezer they taste even better, and when you dunk them the end doesn't drop orf in one's tea!!...yes, I'm a habitual dunker!!(party)(knitting)(tea)

Tough choice! With the plain ones I can convince myself that they're not bad for me as y'know... oats! But the chokky ones *drools*

In days of yore when I was allowed by Mr Doc to eat biscuits I used to love chocolate digestives dunked in a steaming cup of tea, second choice would be chocolate chip cookies similarly dunked, third choice jaffa cakes (NOT dunked) (giggle).

Hobnobs is my favorite. Chocolate is a am feeling generous. I do like a macaroon.

Aside: Who knew a thread about biscuits would have some emetophobia exposure therapy. I handled it very well, a few deep breaths and it passed. It's good I like to be ambushed and it tests my coping and I really need to push myself more atm.

Anyway biscuits, don't eat them now due to dairy and sugar making me really quite poorly but fig rolls, love love love them, bourbons yum, my dd loves to put marshmallow flush between two chocolate digestives (try it, so good), not a huge fan of hob nobs (I know, sorry), there used to be a digestive with a thin layer of caramel, man they were good!

Really? They sound like they would be amazing, I feel like the addition of chocolate improves everything! ;-)

I had one of them biscuits with icing and a jelly tot on it. I couldn't dunk it in my tea, but it was nice.
If your looking for a nice biscuit for dooking them look no further than the classic Garibaldi.
