Where do you live? I can get hobknobs at grocery stores in New Jersey (NYC metro area). They are like $4 Wegman’s carries them.

Deep south, I'll look for them next time I'm at a Fresh Market.

If you have a local city with a large enough UK ex-pat community they should beeasy to find.

My pick is Irish and it’s Jacob’s Club which is a plain biscuit with chocolate. It’s like a kit kat with a cookie middle rather than a wafer
