you can definatly cover the choc ripples in brandy, just enough to coat both sides, my grandmother used to do it and i do it every year at christmas, it doesn’t make it soggy at all.

In the USA, you can use Nabisco Famous Chocolate Wafers. Although to be honest, it works with any “crispy” cookie, from Nilla Wafers to Chips Ahoy, etc etc. Oreos too, as mentioned. Before I discovered the Famous Chocolate Wafers, I scraped the cream out of the Oreos, then added the scraped middles into the whipped cream. It’s also often made with Cool Whip here in the States.

If you do a google search for “Alchemy in a Biscuit”, you’ll find a wicked decadent version! I like to incorporate ideas from all different recipes.

Oh, and you can add some brandy (or Kahlua, or Bailey’s, or coffee brandy or even just coffee. Also, orange juice. Maybe try peppermint schnapps?) to the whipped cream (a tablespoon or two), and then you DIP the cookies in the same kind of liquid before smearing the whipped cream on. As mentioned, soaking them would make them too soggy. :)

Lyndal – the biscuits go soft from the cream, it would be too hard to put together with the biscuits already soggy. You could add Brandy to the cream. Try Oreos – I have used them before and it was very yummy :)

you left out the part where you soak the biscuits in brandy before you put them together with cream….and

where do you get suitable chocolate biscuits over here in the usa?
