Biscuit (aka cookie) Brownies! This week’s recipe is a delightful twist on my ever-popular decadent biscoff brownie recipe. If you love brownies and biscuits (aka cookies), you’re in for a treat! These easy-to-make chocolate brownies incorporate biscuits, adding a deliciously crunchy texture to the rich, fudginess of a good brownie. I used mini Oreos and chocolate Jammie Dodgers but you…
Hello! I hope you’ve all had the most fabulous week! I had a sneaky little extended weekend break as it was a Bank Holiday here. So I went to discover the delights of Derbyshire and Yorkshire!
