Malted milk (biscuit)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The malted milk is a type of biscuit, first produced by Elkes Biscuits of Uttoxeter (now owned by Fox's Biscuits) in 1924.
They are named after their malt flavouring and milk content, although they are also referred to as "Cow Biscuits". or "Moo Cow Biscuits" after the distinctive cow picture imprinted on the biscuit. There are three main variations of the design which varies from company to company. These are:
- Two milk churns and a cow
- A cow and a gate
- A cow and a smaller cow
They are also sold as "Cow Biscuits" with a selection of comedy cartoon cow motifs and phrases.
A chocolate covered variation is also available.
