WHen I think Roald Dahl I think of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. :o

Those cookies sound like something special to eat. Kinda envious you guys across the pond have such good sweets.

Yeah, we used to have a reputation for chocolate but IMO Cadbury's completely dropped in quality some time after they got bought out by Kraft. I think it tastes almost grainy and chalky now, and too sweet. Green & Blacks chocolate (which Cadbury owns) is still really good quality stuff though.

I've seen Green and Black around here, it's pretty good. But that was a few years ago hehe.

Well actually biscuits can be called either cookies or crackers. Let's take the cream cracker as an example. I wouldn't call this a cookie. :lol:
.....

The best kinds of homemade cookies for me? Well, I like soft and chewy cookies. Not a big fan of hard or crunchy but I'll eat them too regardless.

Wait, it’s a chocolate? I thought it was literally just a hot chocolate brand that my mum really likes! :o

It is indeed a chocolate bar. I had some recently and wasn't so impressed actually, but their ice cream is nice. About the only good chocolate brand I can name these days is Lindt, which even that is a little too sickly for my taste.

Yeah Lindt is the best tasting chocolate but boy, is it sickly! Though I do like a cheeky Lindt pick and mix occasionally.
