Ive been buying these cookies and McVities shortbread from www.spicyusa.com. Their prices are fair, and they deliver to me pretty quickly. They have lots of British items for that matter.

Since I've never had them, I don't know about the texture, but maybe if you try grinding the oatmeal into a fine flour it may help.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11259640913845569431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27450859.post-1154841956772074352006-08-06T00:25:00.000-05:002006-08-06T00:25:00.000-05:00Annie - The McVities people say they are called "d...Annie - The McVities people say they are called "digestives" because they are easy to digest.

I'm probably going to tweak this recipe when I make it again, but I think it's a good base.
