Directions
Zaarbucks Famous Apricot Almond Scones,In July 2005, five women set out to Florence Italy to found Zaarbucks, a chain of kiosks serving coffees, teas, jaffles, fudge and baked goods. Early on, the group’s business manger, PanNan, figured out that customers hooked on their fabulous baked goods would soon gain so much weight they would stop buying their daily muffins and scones. Quickly Bergy and Derf began working on a new recipe for a deletable new scone that would be kind to the figure. Having developed a basic recipe for light scones, they worked with Madeleine M. to develop a range of flavor combinations that would rival none. Apricot-Almond was by far my favorite so today, one time only, I’m sharing the recipe with you. Don’t tell ’em where you got the recipe.,Friends loved them, there were no leftovers. Great scone.,Very nice scone recipe, a bit putzy with the preparation, but worth the effort in the end. Try dried cranberries in place of the ‘cots, too–every bit as delish! Or chocolate chips or nuts. Mmm-mmm-good! A *Zaar Star* recipe!
