Are they similar to Royal Dansk butter cookies?

I'd say they have less snap than butter cookies, slightly denser, more akin to shortbread.

I think I got them from Sainsburys. They are doing rhubarb and custard custard creams too.

I've not seen the rhubarb and custard ones. Mine has lemon meringue pie custard creams, and neopolitan ice cream bourbons. I think there's some hot cross bun custard creams(?) still hanging around from Easter. I was expecting those to have gone by now. They had some strawberry custard creams a couple of years ago, and I've been hoping they will return.

I went back and I don't see them anymore, but it has also been a while. They seem to cycle through these limited edition versions far too quickly.

Nice! I shall investigate further!
