add to shopping list Ingredients

2 cup flour
4 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
1/3 cup Sugar
4 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp Shortening
1 Tsp Lemon Flavoring
1 Tbsp Ground Ginger
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1 egg
Handful sliced or chopped almonds

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Mix well. Cut in butter and shortening. In a separate bowl, combine cream with beaten egg and other wet ingredients then add to dry ingredients. Stir in almonds. Turn dough out onto a floured surface. Roll dough out and cut into biscuit size rounds. (For parties I use a small wine glass to cut the scones... you can also cut into traditional triangles). Bake for 15 minutes or until brown. Let cool if you are going to glaze or ice them!

Mouthwatering!

I read your lovely interview at Food For Thought and I immediately scurried over to see what you had cooked up for us.

I have a feeling I'll be here often!
