You've been eating Scotch Fingers wrong
Whether you're a dunker, nibbler or 'eat it whole' kinda person, Arnott's Scotch Fingers are a staple in every Aussie's pantry. But did you know there's a proper way to eat them? Arnott's have just announced how you're supposed to enjoy the classic bikkie, and it's the hack that solves all your crumb nightmares.
How to actually eat Scotch Fingers
We all know how buttery and delicate Scotch Fingers are, and we also know that it almost always leads to a layer of biscuit crumbs on your lap. But according to Arnott's, the right way to eat them is by snapping them in half! In fact, they've even released a step-by-step guide:
It seems like a no-brainer, right? Well, after conducting research, Arnott's revealed that only 43% choose to break their Scotch Finger in half. The research also revealed that almost 1 in 3 Aussies prefer to eat their Scotch Finger straight out of the packet and over a quarter enjoy dunking their Scotch Finger in a hot beverage.

The best way to use Scotch Fingers
We love Scotch Fingers as a basic biscuit to use in baking. They're great as a cheesecake base, like in this marbled passionfruit curd cheesecake.
They also work really well crushed in truffles or chocolate balls, like these ones.
This chocolate maple slice is one of our favourites from the archives. It uses whole Scotch Fingers as the base, with a chewy condensed milk middle and gooey chocolate topping.
But of course, you can just enjoy them straight from the packet with a cup of tea – not forgetting to snap them the right way, of course.
