Re: What do you dunk
Digestives, Rich Tea, Ginger Nuts, Shorties and Custard Creams. Tend to dunk em all. I'm not a bit bothered about sludge in the bottom of my cup. Hobnobs need several dunks and tend not to leave sludge.
I do like the newfangled cookies too, and I do make them at home but they're not really dunk friendly.
Tim Tam biscuits (similar to Penguin ), are great with a brew. Bite off a bottom & top corner, hold the bottom corner in your coffee and suck your brew up through it like a straw.....Yum!!

That, lettie, sounds disgusting!
What sort of a noise does it make?
The secret with dunking, susie, is that it must in and out very quickly,then you don't get it dropping in your cup and the biscuit is still crunchy.

Re: What do you dunk
I can't have biscuits in the house otherwise I would just scoff them all at once and the same with cake and chocolate! I do like dark chocolate digestives with a cup of coffee but unfortunately a couple is just never enough!
I bake shortbread biscuits and ginger biscuits for my partner to take to work with him every week, so that I can have one when they're ready but I can avoid further temptation!

Those who do the Devil's work.
Mind, you need a big cup.
If they're to go under properly.

Thank you very kindly, not only for the karma but, also letting the world know.
Believe it or not, I don't play that game, I rarely give or take it. I have always been against it.
But it has always been part of the site, so please, don't be upset if I don't do tit for tat, giving or taking, I appreciate it enough if someone answers my posts, whether they are for or against.

Re: What do you dunk
I stopped buying biscuits when I went on a sugar free diet for six months in the autumn of 2010.
I lost any sweet tooth I had and one stone in weight!
I have recently resumed resumed buying biscuits but now I am aware of trans fats and hydrogenised fats, my choice is limited. These are wholesome -
Jules Destrooper Almond Thins
Ingredients -Wheat Flour, Brown Sugar, Butter, Almonds (10%), Salt, raising agents: sodiumbicarbonate.
- a pack can last me 2 weeks if no-one helps me eat them.
Before I became a fussy eater I loved dunking Thin Arrowroot - you had to be a fast dunker or have a spoon handy.
