I was in the mood to use one of my new cookbooks today so I picked out my new bread cookbook and started flipping. I came across Currant Scones and thought that might be new and fun. I didn't quite have all the ingredients (like currants...what is that? I think it is related to the raisin which i don't like anyway.) I brainstormed and decided to do coconut and a honey glaze (I credit Bri with that) I kneaded out the dough and then formed two balls. Then made them each about 1 inch thick ( I am horrible at this so I made mine a little thick) Bri and I were going to each make one to see whose came out better. The recipe said to score the top of the thick pancake thingys so that you can cut them easier when done. I am looking at these little triangles thinking "they are the smallest scones I have ever seen, maybe they will grow in the oven". So after cooking them for a bit, I took a peek and ...nope the same size. I don't think I made mine ball flat enough or something. I pulled them out when they looked toasty and brown. We had covered them in the honey glaze which slid off onto the pan mostly. They were not bad at all but I feel like I should call them mini-scones because I am trying to be as honest as possible. Feedback wasnt great...the average was about a 3 or 2.5. I still have them in my house which speaks volumes because it was like a week ago I made them.
Oh, well, they looked pretty.
