Mars Chocolate Drinks and Treats is launching a rival to McVitie’s digestives with the debut of Galaxy chocolate digestive biscuits. The WWF says it can be produced sustainably, and all the supermarkets say they use only sustainably sourced palm oil.

But Greenpeace argues that manufacturers have no way of telling if what they use is truly sustainable. After many years of looking at one another, we are excited about bringing together two businesses that share the same passion for crafting British biscuits with care, quality and innovation,” Browne said at the time. Last year a survey of Britain's favourite savoury foods saw Yorkshire puddings, Roasts, Fish and Chips and Bacon Sandwichs named the country's top picks. They will be available exclusively to Asda from 29 December for three months, before rolling out to further multiples and the convenience channel in March.

For the cheesecake filling, use an electric hand whisk to mix together the cream cheese, vanilla and icing sugar. Smooth the mixture into the tin on top of the biscuit base and put it in the fridge overnight to set.

Here you will find my easy and delicious collection of recipes and how to guides, to satisfy all of your sweet cravings and baking queries.

The brand has also shared ideas on how to incorporate the biscuits into recipes and we're feeling particularly inspired to use these biscuits as our base for a deliciously decadent cheesecake.The milk chocolate biscuit flavour has the signature chocolate taste we all know and love, which is on the sweeter side, and it pairs really nicely with the buttery biscuit base. You can use either butter or baking spread for the biscuit base, I find that baking spread makes the cheesecake easier to remove from the tin as it doesn't make the base set as solidly.

However, food products are constantly being improved so their ingredients and the other information we publish here, including details of their nutritional content and allergy advice, is liable to change. When you’re mixing the filling, you want it to get to a stage where you can scoop some up with your spatula or spoon and you have to give it a tap on the side of the bowl or slight flick of the wrist to get the mixture off the spoon.

It’s also considered an indicator that the food is ultra-processed, and so should be consumed with circumspection – however, we don’t need a health report to know not to stuff ourselves with biscuits. It makes the interesting point that dunking a biscuit reduces the temperature of the tea, making it drinkable more quickly than simply letting it cool, and finds that digestives are the least robust of the four varieties tested (oat biscuit, shortbread and Rich Tea being the others), taking less than nine seconds to collapse in the mug.

We've previously had Galaxy truffle hot chocolate powder, a Galaxy smooth orange flavoured chocolate bar and even Galaxy cupcakes, but this new launch might just be our favourite yet — as the brand has announced it is launching Galaxy Milk Chocolate and Galaxy Orange Digestive Biscuits. While we have taken care in preparing this summary and believe it to be accurate, it is not a substitute for reading the product packaging and label prior to use. Although this biscuit was more popular than the McVitie’s version in the taste test scoring 78/100 compared to 72/100. These are very pale with a blurry, indistinct stamped design, and aren’t a perfect round, but they taste malty and rich, if a little lacking in crispness. I had naively imagined that they are more wholesome because they are made with wholemeal flour, but in fact it’s only a small proportion of the total flour content – just over a fifth in the case of McVitie’s.Mars said that, despite a third of households eating chocolate digestives, branded choice was extremely limited. You can also opt for a brand that includes rapeseed oil, thus bringing down the total palm oil content. Goodhousekeeping Magazine sampled some of the nation’s best tea-time treats to find out which brands came up trumps when it comes to taste. Mars Chocolate Drinks and Treats GM Michelle Frost said Mars is responding to "extremely limited choice" in the branded digestive market. If you were hoping to add them to the Christmas biscuit stash you’re out of luck though as they aren’t due for release until the big day has passed.
