Nice to see you, ebm. We get Tim Tams in many different flavours here, even white chocolate. I had Pina Colada ones but I don't think they tasted very nice.

That said, I would punch a puppy right in the face for some of these Australian treats:

Do you eat them like the Aussies do?  :orly: I looked them up to see what it is and found this.  :lol1:

I've heard it called the Tim Tam Slam.

How is it even possible American's don't have a similar cookie so I can try this? There's nothing.  >:(

I've done it with a Penguin, the English equivalent. It's just like dipping a biscuit really. It's better if the tea is hot, because sucking it up through the biscuit cools the tea right down.

You can try it with different chocolate covered biscuits or anything else porous inside like wafers.  :)

I like the part where she crams the whole thing into her gob like a ravenous savage.  :zoinks:

I am partial to pecan pie that only I can make. I learned from my mom.

Not to give it away too much, but the custard part includes twelve separated eggs, two cups of sugar and a stick and a half of butter. (OK, now you have it. Cook the custard VERY slowly, add vanilla at the end) Float the whole mess on a pre-scorched crust. It takes about an hour to bake at three hundred degrees.
Can not really dis' anyone else's efforts, but it also requires the particularly oily and richly flavored pecans that only grow in Texas dry lands to actually work out right.

Fabulous!

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.
