Product Information

These are lovely oaty biscuits but a little too sweet for me which is why I prefer the dark chocolate hobnobs.

Nadia has wonderful recipes that are delicious and super satisfying without spending hours in the kitchen and without making me feel like crud.

In case you’re wondering how my biscuits all look so even: while the biscuits were still hot from the oven, I used a pastry ring to cut each one into a perfect circle.

The name Hobnob comes from the verb 'to hobnob', which means to spend time being friendly with someone who is important or famous. That step is completely optional, as is actually coating them with chocolate – plain HobNobs are a thing – but, to be honest, why would you go for plain if there’s a chocolate option?
