Scones

i have never really liked scones because when eating them on it's own...they dont tend to go down the throat well...it's usually really really dry...but this scone recipe..is so so good...even when it's left overnight......i made up a batch of scone dough, split the dough into half...added ham and cheese to one half(mini scones)...and choc chips to the other(mini mini scones)...bake time was the same regardless of size...one tip when making mini mini...instead of mixing the choc chips into the dough..shape the dough to individual sizes first then add the choc chip to the individually shaped dough...much easier that way...and needless to say...J lurves the mini mini...he was sneaking into the kitchen yesterday pigging out on them...
