foster461 Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 Milk choc hob knobs. They have everything - texture, flavor, proper chocolate not that Hershey ****. A few years ago I was passing through Frankfurt airport on my way home from somewhere in Asia and I found a package of some little cookies that were like small Jaffa cakes. cookie, orange filling, chocolate on top. They were awesome and I have no idea what they were and have never seen them since. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mick And even if you don't happen to have them all in the store cupboard at the same time, each will do very nicely on its own. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Misfit Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 Strawberries dipped in Chocolate with Champagne, sprinkled with freshly ground black pepper or with a dollop of Clotted cream all sound good to me. To keep this on topic Just add Lidl Oaties on the side. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
