Jaffa Cakes in a Brownie? Why not, like my Oreo Brownie I decided to make another cupboard biscuit brownie. This time with Jaffa Cakes, my daughters favourite biscuit.
Adding the addition of orange zest and juice it adds the slighty orange-y-ness to the brownie.
These are amazing warm, you need to have at least one piece warm, as the jelly from the Jaffa cake biscuit is warm and slightly running adding instance flavour.
Please be aware these won't last long int he cake tin! Jaffa Cake Brownies are perfect with a cup of tea in the mid afternoon for a quick pick me up.
