scones

I don't have any pics of these - they got eaten too fast.

8oz self raising flour
Pinch of salt
2oz butter
1oz caster sugar
150ml/5fl oz milk

Heat the oven to 220C
Grease baking tray
Mix together flour, salt and rub in butter
Stir in sugar
Stir in milk until you get a soft dough
Flour surface and knead lightly
Make rounds with a cookie cutter, place on tray, brush tops with milk
Bake for 12-15 minutes

I sometimes add currants at the 'dry' stage. You can make cheese scones by substituting the sugar for cheddar.
