Tim Tam Slam Challenge
G'day, mates! Prepare for a delicious challenge with one of Australia's most beloved treats - Tim Tams! As we gear up for Australia Day on January 26th, let's dive into the world of these iconic chocolate biscuits and the mouthwatering ritual known as the Tim Tam Slam.
Tim Tams pair so well with coffee or hot chocolate!
What Are Tim Tams?
Tim Tams are a chocolate lover's dream come true. Created by Arnott's, an Australian biscuit company, in 1964, these delectable treats consist of two malted biscuits separated by a light chocolate cream filling, all coated in a thin layer of textured chocolate. It's no wonder they've become Australia's most-loved chocolate biscuit. These irresistible treats come in various flavors, including the classic original, dark chocolate, white chocolate, and caramel. But no matter which flavor you choose, one thing's for sure - they're perfect for the Tim Tam Slam!
The Tim Tam Slam: A Delicious Ritual
Let's talk about the Tim Tam Slam - a fun and tasty Australian tradition. Also known as the Tim Tam Bomb, or Tim Tam Explosion, this ritual transforms your ordinary coffee break into an extraordinary chocolate experience
Here's how to perform the perfect Tim Tam Slam:
Prepare your hot beverage of choice - coffee, tea, or hot chocolate works great
Gently bite off opposite corners of your Tim Tam
Use the Tim Tam as a straw, dipping one bitten end into your hot drink
Suck the beverage through the Tim Tam, feeling it soften as the liquid travels through
Just before it collapses, quickly pop the entire Tim Tam into your mouth
Experience a heavenly explosion of melted chocolate and a warm beverage
The result? A mouth-watering combination of crunchy biscuit, creamy filling, and melted chocolate that will have you reaching for another Tim Tam in no time!
