Tim Tam Slam!

Edith sent me a pack of Tim Tams from Australia a few months ago, but I was saving it for a family occasion. Christmas Eve was the perfect night to try it because it was just the 4 of us and it was a cold night for hot chocolate and Tim Tam Slams! After dinner at Ai Passion, Emily and I went to Rite Aid hoping to get some Swiss Miss hot chocolate. They were sold out, but luckily, there was a Dunkin Donuts on the way to my parents' house. So we had everything we needed for the Tim Tam Slams.

Here are the basic steps:

1) Prepare (or buy) some hot chocolate. Make sure it stays hot, otherwise you'll lose the melting/collapsing effect.

2) Bite off the ends of the Tim Tam so that the spongy layer in the middle is exposed. You want to bite carefully without collapsing the biscuit. It helps if the Tim Tams are stored in a relatively cool dry place.

3) Dip one end of the biscuit into the hot chocolate and use it as a straw by sucking on the other end. You have to do this for a few seconds before the hot chocolate makes its way up through the spongy layer, melting it and collapsing the biscuit into the ultimate chocolate implosion.

Enjoy!
