Recipe - Cream Tea Scones

2 cup Flour
2 tablespoon Granulated sugar
4 teaspoon Baking powder
One half teaspoon Salt
1/3 cup Butter
1 Egg
1 Egg yolk
One half cup Light cream; approximate
1 Egg white; lightly beaten
Granulated sugar

Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until
mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

In small bowl, combine egg, egg yolk and cream; beat with fork to blend.
Add all at once to dry miture, stirring with fork to make soft, slightly
sticky dough (add more cream if necessary).

Press into ball and knead gently on floured surface about 10 times.

Roll out dough to 1/2inch thickness; cut into triangles or rounds. Place
on ungreased baking sheet. Brush with egg white and sprinkle lightly with
granulated sugar. Bake at 425 degrees F oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until
golden. Makes 12 to 16 scones. Posted to KitMailbox Digest by
