SCONES AND A BREW.

So many recipes for scones , so many different versions with varying ingredients... This one is good..... Ingredients......600gm of self raising flour, 40gm of icing sugar, 250ml of thickened cream, 375 ml of milk, jam and whipped cream to serve or you may prefer butter/ marg and jam. Preheat your oven to 200 deg C. Line an oven tray with a sheet of baking paper. Mix the flour and icing sugar in a large bowl. Pour in the cream and use a flat bladed butter knife to cut / mix in . Now add the milk and continue to use the knife to mix in. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and pat into a rectangle about 2.5 thick. Cut the dough into 16 equal squares. Place the scones on the prepared oven tray and bake for 20 minutes or until risen and golden. If you like a soft crusted scone, wrap the hot scones in a clean tea towel till cool. Serve with jam and cream or with butter/ marg and jam and a fresh brewed pot of tea or coffee. Just enjoy .
