Fairy cake! (7)

I believe the answer is:

brownie

I believe this is a double definition.

'fairy' is the first definition.
(I know that brownie is a type of fairy)

'cake' is the second definition.
(brownie is a kind of cake)

(Other definitions for brownie that I've seen before include "Young Girl Guide..." , "Junior Girl Guide" , "sweet thing" , "Disciplined youngster" , "Benevolent elf; cake" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Telegraph and The Sun.
