Were you even a British child in the early 90’s if you didn’t open your lunchbox to reveal a delicious chocolate Wagon Wheel sitting beside your sweaty cheese sandwiches? They were the golden child of the school diners, kids would try and swap their whole lunch for a Jammy Wagon Wheel. Who wants a pink wafer when you can have the bad boy of the biscuit world. Fast forward 23 years and I’m still partial, even though I’m pretty sure they have gotten significantly smaller. That or it’s just my hands have gotten bigger, who knows.
After the success of my Jammy Dodger Blondies I’ve been on the lookout for more treats I can splice up into my baked goods. When I saw the recipe for Wagon Wheel Brownies in Olive Magazine I just had to give it a go and cursed myself for not thinking of it first.
Brownie batter, swirled with lashings of marshmallow fluff and raspberry jam with the periodic hunk of Wagon Wheel. What could go wrong?! This is a brownie fit for a queen. Turn up anywhere with a tray of these babies and you’ll make friends for life. Just don’t blame me when they follow you around demanding more.

oh my god, these look incredible!! xx
Wow, these look insanely tasty. They're oozing jammy, marshmallowy goodness.Since we're on the topic of awesome biscuits, I highly recommend custard creams blondies. I once mixed custard cream chunks into a browned butter blondie batter (a BBC recipe, possibly found through you years ago..?) and it was pretty damn good.
These look like the best brownies I've seen in ages
Oh my goodness, my mouth is salivating! These looks amazing, I had totally forgotten about wagon wheels, used to love them
