What are the best biscuits for dunking in your tea?

Question

I'd go for the chocolate caramel digestives.

Answer 1

Now THIS is a proper question!
Personally, I believe there are far too many biscuits to choose a best, however, the following do spring to mind (in no particular order);

- The Classic, Rich Tea
- Custard Creams
- Hob Nobs (original and chocolate covered)
- Maryland Cookies
- Chocolate covered Milk Cows
- A Contraversial choice, Ginger Biscuits

These are probably my favourites, my lease favourites have to be;

- Pink Wafers (what a waste of time!)
- "Finger" Biscuits - too thin, can't take the heat of the brew
- Digestives (too crumbly)
- Jaffa Cakes (NOT a biscuit!)

Good question. (o:

Answer 2

I'd have to say bourbon. They don't go soggy quickly. Has anyone noticed a rich tea goes slightly soggy when dunked in a cuppa tea but stays hard when dunked in hot chocolate?

Answer 3

Has to be Ginger Nuts. They hold up well in the tea and hardly ever break in half leaving a soggy mess in the bottom. They're also, almost always, suitable for Vegans which is an extra bonus!

Answer 4

Walkers Shortbread

Answer 5

Hilsbery Doe Boy

Answer 6

For me a Digestives, morning coffee/rich tea or niece.

Answer 7

Hob - Nobs!!

They are like the marines of the biscuit world!! You can dunk them and they dont fall apart!!

Answer 8

I'm gonna have to go with shortbread (Walker's in particular!). It has the stability to last for a really good dunk!

Answer 9

Try dunking pain du chocolat (chocolate croissants) in coffee - heaven.

Answer 10

Ginger snaps or tea biscuits were always my favorite
