Melissa’s Cozy Teacup

This is my recipe, though I am sure there are other’s out there very similar to this one. I did not take a photograph (maybe we should call them digigraphs?) . I was going to do my chocolate zucchini scones, but those are especially ugly in digigraphs and do not look like scones at all, but more like road apples!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Cardamom Scones

2 C flour

1 TBS baking powder

2 TBS white sugar

1/8 tsp salt

1 tsp powdered ginger

1 tsp Chinese five spice

3 cardamom pods opened,

seeds removed and crushed into a powder

¼ C unsalted butter cut into 1 inch cubes

3 oz cream cheese do not warm

¾ C milk

In mixing bowl of food processor, blend dry ingredients

including spices. Add butter and blend.

Add cream cheese and blend. Slowly add milk while food

processor is running. Scrape down sides if needed.

Do not over mix.

Using a 2 inch cookie scoop, place scones on baking pan

about an inch apart. Bake in pre-heated, 425 oven for

10 minutes or until done.

On a side note, I had a, ‘name that photo’ contest yesterday. You can still see the post. The contest is over, but I just wanted to let you know about it because you never know when there will be another. Don’t forget to visit!
