Raspberry Cream Scones


"Scones are dry," has to be my most despised food myth of all time.   Moist cream scones are anything but and serve as the perfect accompaniment to a cup of tea!

Try the following recipe:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 stick butter, cut into small pieces
1/2 cup cream
1 large egg 
1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam

Directions

Preheat oven to 350.  Combine dry ingredients.  Whisk egg lightly into cream. 

Add cream and jam to flour mixture kneading gently into a soft dough.  Pat dough into a round Pyrex pie dish.  


Bake until golden brown, about 15 to 18 minutes.  Slice and transfer scones to a wire rack for cooling. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Chalkboards add charm and personality to the kitchen.  They're great for jotting down notes, to-do's or menus.  I'm looking forward to using my chalkboards for many food shoots to come!



Hydrangeas and roses brightened the day. To quote Alphonse:

"Some people complain that roses have thorns.
 I am thankful that the thorns have roses."
