Sometimes I just want to sit on the couch, watch Netflix, with a hot cuppa and chocolate treat. These delicious afghan biscuits hit the spot. They are so soft in texture but so rich in flavour. They are a great way to use up unused cereal but it’s the cream cheese and nutella icing and walnuts on top that give it that extra deliciousness!
