In work's kitchen this morning, I found a couple of fig rolls on a plate left over from a meeting. I couldn't stop myself. I haven't had a fig roll in years.
In tribute, I briefly considered compiling my Top Ten Biscuits and seeing whether fig rolls truly deserve a place amongst the gingerbread, jammy dodgers, fruit shrewsburies, chocolate digestives and chocolate chip cookies. (I'm trusting that my American readers are savvy enough to not question my definition of the word 'biscuit'... though I do sometimes wonder why us proud Brits muddied the waters of that particular transatlantic anomaly by part-adopting cookie too.) But then I realised... it's Friday, I'd rather just see here and eat a biscuit than actually write about them. (I might have to go get a coffee to have with them.)
What's your favourite biscuit?
If forced to choose in front of a firing squad, I'd probably have to say ginger. I do like a nice ginger biscuit...
