I like this cocktail, especially with pierre ferand tempus fugit and mr. black. Not sure if I agree with shaking this cocktail, seems like a better stirrer.

I loved this. No bourbons here - garnished with infinitely superior Bahlsen dark chocolate biscuit. Next stop: Midnight over Tennessee - I can't wait!

Ah, when I say "no bourbons", I mean no bourbon biscuits, of course...

I followed Anita's advice and added an ounce of cream (because I misread her comment), which makes for a lot of drink, but I'm not complaining. It's still plenty boozy and not too sweet. I added some chocolate bitters to the top.

Oof, boozy indeed...may have to try the cream if I get back to it. Don’t have Bourbon biscuits here so I coated a plain cookie in melted dark chocolate and (accidentally) floated it. The chocolate coating kept it from taking on water and it remained afloat - pretty fun

My favorite dessert cocktail, just served it now with a gorgeous chocolate dessert. I made my version a bit naughtier though, am such a bad girl.

Named bourbon biscuit but no bourbon? Good but very sweet, Added 1/2 oz. cream to mellow it out.

Cream to mellow is a good idea. It is on the boozy side but does taste reminiscent of a chocolate biscuit - a Bourbon Biscuit indeed as used for the garnish.
