Chocolate Bytes

Tim Tams in my hot little hands!

My awesome and thoughtful friend Rasee in Missouri got her hands on Tim Tams and sent me some!

I was amused that nowhere on the package did it actually say that they were Tim Tams! Aussie friends – is that normal? Or do they usually say “Tim Tam” on the front?

I tried to make it out to the mailbox as soon as I knew the mailman would be gone but there’s no telling how long they were in his truck before that.

We’ve been hitting the so-called “century mark” since June, so I suspected they probably wouldn’t look terribly pretty when I opened them up. Still, I popped them into the fridge to recuperate for a bit but after 20 minutes I couldn’t stand it anymore!

Alas, as is the fate of anything meltable this time of year they were puddly, but I knew they’d taste just fine, and they did! The wafers were crispy, the chocolate was very good and the frosting bit in the middle is apparently not affected by heat! My kids were clambering all over me as I tried them and I promised them one as soon as they “get fixed” in the fridge. I will definitely be trying one with my coffee tomorrow morning!

It’s probably a very good thing that these aren’t available around here because I would definitely be in trouble. They’re so good! Thank you, Rasee!

    Yes, tim tams are Australian biscuits, and they definitely say “tim tams” on the package. They are the most heavenly-tasting delectable chokky biscuits in the world. I can’t live without them.
