Kitkat

Kit Kat is a snack built around layered wafer fingers coated in chocolate, and the appeal is the contrast between a crisp, light wafer and a smooth coating. Bars in this style usually snap cleanly along the grooves, so they can be eaten whole or split into fingers and shared. Expect a milky, sweet chocolate note with a toasted-cereal edge from the wafer. The exact flavor and size depend on the variant, so check the pack. Store it somewhere cool and dry. Chocolate that has warmed and re-set can turn dull and lose its snap, so a room at moderate temperature, or a short rest in the fridge in summer, keeps the coating firm. If you chill it, let it sit a few minutes before eating so the chocolate softens and the flavor comes through. It pairs most easily with hot drinks. A black coffee or a pot of black tea cuts through the sweetness and lets the wafer's toasted character show. Milk or a cold glass of milk suits it as a dessert-style snack. A bar can also be crushed over ice cream or yogurt, or broken into a milkshake for a crunchy texture. If you want a drink with it at the evening end of the day, a stout or porter has roasted notes that match milk chocolate, but this is a matter of taste and not a rule. No special glassware is needed. A mug for coffee or tea, or a tall glass for milk, is enough.
