Rosehip Nov 2023 9:52pm, 14 Nov 2023 30,399 posts	Quote Pin Rosehip I recall making a pudding in the 70's that was basically a packet of ginger biscuits sandwiched together with whipped cream. The biscuits softened into the cream and it was totally delicious. It probably laid down a whole lot of plaque in my arteries too. The ginger biscuits were soaked in something alcoholic when mum used to make that, but I don’t know what because we weren’t allowed to taste it! Seeing as mum didn’t drink, I doubt she ate it either but it was standard dinner party fayre. Ginger nuts, lemon puff or plain digestives for me please. Only M&s chocolate biscuits taste like they used to, the chocolate on biscuits isn’t how it used to be
