United Kingdom – Chocolate chip chocolate scones

First things we noticed – got no chocolate chips or cocoa, so off to the store to get them and let’s try this again. You can follow the recipe on Red Ted Art, Nico helped me by dumping all of the dry ingredients into the bowl and then he even wanted to use the pastry cutter and get the butter incorporated – to him it was more like a spoon, so he stirred, but after a short while he did get the hang of it.

While doing that, we added 1 teaspoon of cocoa to the mix, since we didn’t want to dry it out too much, we actually had to add one tablespoon of flour to the mix, because I had added the whole milk and it turned a bit too sticky…my bad… Oh, and 1/4 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips was added for good measure as well.

For the shape we decided to go with a car cookie cutter and Nico did his best to cut all the way through, but he hit a chocolate chip, so he didn’t quite get through, but he did not give up.

We ended up with 11 cars and a little ball and with a regular oven, the time and temperature stated in Maggy’s recipe probably are right, but with our souped up macrowave of an oven 25 degrees less and 5 minutes less it still managed to burn the bottom.

But if you either cut off the bottom or just ate it, they were still delicious and they are very easy and quick to make, this will be on the menu more often!
