Scones 2.0

After chatting with xanthe  & caffyolay, I tried my scone recipe again with a couple of tweaks.
1.  added tablespoon of soured cream to the milk
2.  added tablespoon of baking powder to the flour & sugar

And as I'd decided from the first attempt, I added the milk a bit at a time (& didn't need to use the whole amount) & also cooked them for a shorter time (by about 4 minutes).

Result: lighter & even tastier scones! \o/

I took a 'DIY cream tea' basket over to my in-laws (freshly baked scones, jam & clotted & cream) & also some for my sisters-in-law.  They got a very positive response. 'Bostin!' LOL
My Mom's coming around for lunch today & we'll also be having scones later. :)

Next baking adventure - carrot cupcakes with orange cream cheese topping, and/or chocolate chip cookies.  Or let's be realistic - both! *g*
I know - I'm becoming a baking geek! LOL

Happy Easter/Sunday/Whatever You Want to Celebrate, folks!
*hugs*

And a very happy birthday to vida_boheme .  I hope you have a smashing day, Finn!
