Chocolate Digestive biscuits are extremely popular in the U.K. According to Wikipedia, around six million are consumed every day, roughly speaking that’s seventy choccy biccies a second! Certainly not to be scoffed at —and nor is my version of Chocolate Digestives— seductively coated with a thick layer of caramel underneath a bonanza of a Belgian chocolate topping!

Chocolate Digestives were the Technical Challenge in Series 3, Episode 8 of The Great British Bake Off— I must confess that I haven’t seen it but I wonder what Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith would have made of my take on this much-loved pièce de résistance!

Why Tubbs, you ask? Well Tubbs is a chocolate-coated labrador after all and he would enjoy ‘em if he could!
