let's get sconed !

recently i'm completely drained out from work

Mr D is dead tired !!
so i decided to give myself a break today ..

yes ! i baking ! cuz it's the best way to kill the stress im dealing now

finally for the longest time ! =)


let's check out my creation for the day =)


i have a long love affair with scones
coincidentally i'm so addicted to macdonald's cinnamon melt recently !
hence i'm going to put both ingredients together and make my very own version .

ingredients :

• 3-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar,
• 2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  
• 4 teaspoons of ground cinnamons
  
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• chocolate chips

In a large bowl, combine the flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk just until moistened.
Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 10-12 times or until dough is no longer sticky.

add in the chocolate chips and mix to distribute

Divide in half; gently pat or roll each portion into a 7-in. circle.
Brush with butter and sprinkle with remaining sugar.
use a 1-2 inch round cutter and cut out 6-8 scones

Separate scones and place on an ungreased baking sheet.
Bake at 425° for 10-13 minutes or until lightly browned.

preheat the oven 425 degree

and bake for 12- 15 mins
