I’m a sweet tooth through and through — but chocolate? Chocolate is my true love. From bars to brownies, I’ve tasted my way through the cocoa kingdom, always on the lookout for something new to try.
Every now and then, I stroll into a supermarket with one goal: hunt down a fresh, exciting treat. Of course, I make a beeline for the snack aisle. Those colourful wrappers, the glossy packaging, the unspoken promise of indulgence — they call out to me like old friends.
That’s when I saw it. McVitie’s new release: Vanilla Cream Dark Chocolate Cookies. My heart skipped. My hands reached. No hesitation. Into my basket they went, and straight home I flew, eager for the first bite.
And oh — the moment I opened the pack, the sweet scent of vanilla and dark chocolate floated up like a dessert symphony. I took one bite, and my brain lit up: this reminds me of Oreos… but better. The vanilla cream was smooth, the biscuit perfectly crisp — but it was the dark chocolate coating that sealed the deal. Rich, bittersweet, and lingering… not too sugary, just right. My kind of biscuit.
But I didn’t stop there. Oh no. I decided to kick things up a notch — crushed them into cake batter, added orange juice and zest, and out came the most decadent chocolate cake I’ve ever made. Moist. Lush. Slightly tangy. Full of McVitie’s magic.
The best part? That first session of indulgence wasn’t just about snacking — it sparked creativity. Now? I’m hooked. One bite turned into a baking obsession. And honestly? I regret nothing.
