Can an American help? I don't know what a Club cracker is and I think a Graham cracker is similar to a digestive but I'm not sure how similar. Anyhoodly, I want to make this: | ||
Kit Kat bras sound fascinating, Myanmar'. If ye ask nicely, Nutrax might post a wee photo of herself in one; so might Vinny... | 1 | |
The Cooks Thesaurus suggests that Australians substitute wheatmeal biscuits for graham crackers, and explains how digestive biscuits differ. http://www.foodsubs.com/Crackers.html It doesn't list Kelloggs Keebler's Club Crackers, but the GourmetSleuth site suggests Ritz crackers as a substitute - really not close enough in my opinion since they're quite a bit thicker, and the round shape doesn't fully cover a pan to serve as a crust. Nabisco used to make Waverly crackers, a competitor to Keebler's Club, but it appears they no longer sells those. This recipe for butter-y crackers reads as though it might come close as a substitute. http://bouillie.wordpress.com/2009/11/27/homemade-buttery-crackers/ | 2 | |

For "Kit-Kat" bars I would try without the ice cream. (or "wafer biscuits") | 4 | |
I looked up other Kit Kat recipes. Besides Club Crackers, some called for Waverley crackers or Ritz Crackers (one euphemistically said "buttery round crackers"). Waverley Crackers are no longer made. What you want is something that is thin and crisp and made with butter. I found a Canadian brand called President's Choice Crisp and Thin Butter Crackers. Pepperidge Farm makes something called "golden butter." If that is not a typo in your OP, then perhaps these folks can help you. (work safe unless your workplace is a convent) | 5 | |
inside showing the wafer buscuits "A Kit Kat is a chocolate confection that was created by Rowntree's of York, England, and is now produced worldwide by Nestlé, which acquired Rowntree in 1988, except in the United States where it is made under license by The Hershey Company. Each bar consists of fingers composed of three layers of wafer, covered in an outer layer of chocolate. Each finger can be snapped from the bar one at a time." | 6 | |
Thanks, arbon! And thanks Nutrax, too, for that wee photo - I didnae recognise ye at first with yer hat on. The best way to eat a finger of Kit-Kat is to place one-sixth of it between yer two front teeth and bite down repeatedly, whilst rapidly pushing another one-sixth forward till there is none left. (Ye'll have got the hang of it if it's all in yer mouth in six secs. (max.) Then, ye can enjoy eating the finger. | 7 | |
#3 / arbon - Great (and work-safe, TY) photo. I agree with your other comments that a cream wafer biscuit / waffle cookie is most like what is in a real kit-kat bar. But those don't have the saltiness of a Club cracker and are quite a bit sweeter, so may alter OP's recipe significantly. | 8 | |
The Op, ....#8, ......But with salt free butter? (I also remember wafers sweet and not sweet though, but never salty). | 9 | |
I think you have to work in a Kit Kat Klub to wear the Kit Kat Bras. | 10 | |
Like Weaver at #10, I thought that the Kit Kat bras referred to in the OP must be the kind worn at the Kit Kat Club, but if you scroll down that page you'll see a lady wearing no bra at all. | 11 | |
but if you scroll down that page you'll see a lady wearing no bra at all I note that Nutrax has replaced her hat wae sunglasses, NA. I've stuck wae my sigline for about a year and resisted the temptation to revolve it. But, just think, any of these would - indeed, do - tempt me tae revolve it again: Kit Kat bars do not have peanut butter! Bottom line: if you want to duplicate the original, do it.But this isn't a duplification Individual methods of eating of Kit Kats may be subject to cultural variations but tony's method is recognized internationally | 12 | |

Goodness! Yer not joking, arbon - unfortunately. | 14 | |
Weaver: I was complimenting ye on yer choice. | 15 | |
Why not buy them and avoid all that fuss and muss? | 16 | |
This kit kat is not a recreation of the bar, but just shares the same name. | 17 | |
We know that. We were joking, because if you look back at your OP you will see that you typed "kit kat bras" for your link, not "kit kat bars." | 18 | |
Exactly, Anon! | 19 | |
NA, not a recreation of the kit kat chocolate bar, just shares the same name, in reply to Anon's comment I should just buy one. I'm not that thick! | 20 | |
I wonder how many people world-wide have called their cat Kit? (I called my first cat Fangs and the second Chomsky.) | 21 | |
