Probably not what you are thinking of. There's an Irish biscuit that has jam and marshmallow:

Bloody delicious.

Excellent suggestions so far - glad to see Jaffa Cakes get in at last. A couple of points:
  • Wafer is biscuit. - there's not even a debate to be had about it so don't waste your time. KitKats are IN (but you can forget about Double Deckers - I'll be proposing them for Chocolate-Off but they have no place here)

    Oreos are not beyond the pale, and are most definitely IN.

    Chocolate Digestives, whether milk or plain - are chocolate digestives and will count as one entry and are IN

Please see OP for the catch all on

KitKat obviously confectionery but you're the boss. For me, biscuits are available in a pack and not individually wrapped.

It's a decent working definition and has many attractions, but then you get things like Amaretti Biscuits that are individually wrapped in tissue paper (i think these may be what Mindsweep was thinking of upthread).

Individual fingers of Twix which are sold in the section clearly labelled biscuits in Morrison's.

Photographic proof to follow shortly when I go there to shop.

Twix is just a souped-up millionaires shortbread. It's a biscuit.

Yum Yum - Jammy Dodgers

I wonder if that's what PW meant by "Jam and cream ring"

This raised the chance that we may get the same biscuit by 2 different names - I shan't worry too greatly about it, I guess Bandoff will work it all out in the end.

Jammy Dodgers do not have cream. And they're all the better for it. PW was referring to a different, but related biscuit.

Toffee Pops.

This is a long shot because I'm not sure they still exist. M&S used to make them.

All allowed. I'll rename item 2 as Supermarket Giant Cookie.

If we're allowing cereal bars, as I think we set a precedent with fig rolls, then I'll stretch a point a bit and add in Flapjacks (but only fairly thin ones)
