Not counting Choc Ripple, which are horrible.

You can get any number of chocolate-coated biscuits, but dammit I just want a simple chocolate shortbread or near offer. Hell, I’d settle for a giant Tiny Teddy, though those too are a bit industrial.

Just give me a pack of bourbons without the cream in, that’d do fine.

Is this some terribly rare niche interest all of a sudden? Am I really the only person in this country who would buy such a thing?

Yes I know I can make my own, it’s just tedious - and the lack of demand for anything like it confuses and enrages me.

    PS. You may want to try Mcvitie’s Digestives for a simple choc biscuit.

      Both Kingstons and choc Digestives are regular biscuits with chocolate coating/filling, so they’re not what OP is looking for.

      They are excellent - but yeah, I’m looking for cocoa powder in the dough vs chocolate applied afterwards :)

        OK, gotcha.

        You may have to put that ‘El Dorado’ to bed and settle for Florentines :P

        Otherwise, we have had success finding quality flavoured shortbread biscuits at the farmer’s markets type places. If they don’t make a choc flavour, you can at least talk face to face with the person who chooses and makes the flavours for the next week.
