Top 5 Biscuits

Another crucial biscuit factor to take into account - dunking properties. The mighty Hobnob laughs at such puny biscuits though.

I think you have a good call with the Tunnock wafer - one of my faves.
But (controversy follows), are we crossing the line into sweets/cakes.
Tunnocks Tea Cakes cannot possibly qualify - clue’s in the name.

They ran out of figs?

I’ll try.

  1. My grandmother’s Zitronenherzen
  2. Proper self-made Zimtsterne
  3. Sicilian Mandorlini
  4. Dutch Honigwafels (i.e., Stroopwafels filled with honey)
  5. proper shortbread

Things shift on this list, naturally, over time. I have some very good recipes which could replace some stuff.

By the way, @anon59592690, would macaron be allowed? Because if you haven’t tried Pierre Hermé’s, I can testify that some of them were delicious. And I would definitely have them with tea, preferably with some Marriage Freres - e.g., their Imperial Wedding blend, or some of their Second Flush Assams.

Sigh, I am a bit of a snob about food and drinks, I guess.

Can they be dunked in tea?
I think that’s the #1 rule here.
