In the UK, these are also known as "squashed fly biscuits" - so I think it's a common name - we can still get them here (I presume they're the same as a Golden Raisin biscuit) - In the UK, they're a Garibaldi, they come in long flat packets, and you have to break off the biscuits as you go, as they're baked in long stretches with the dividing lines scored on them... sometimes just "one" biscuit would "accidentally" turn out to be one VERY big biscuit!
I'm such a rule-follower, Esther - I never thought to eat them without breaking apart. ONE cookie takes on a whole new meaning - I like your style! :) PJH
