Classic British Treacle Scones Recipe: A Sweet Tea-Time Treat

    Cuisine:

    I really wanted to love this recipe but it, sadly, didn't work out that way. After mixing the dry ingredients I tasted them with a finger tip and knew that the molasses alone wasn't going to be enough to flavor them. I added a 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp each ginger and mace. Moving on to the wet ingredients, the amount given wasn't even close to being enough. I ended up using 3/4 cup of milk and it was still pretty stiff with that much but at the same time quite sticky. I patted and cut 7 scones (not 14) and the dough was used up. I had tasted a pinch on the dough before cutting and it would benefited from 1/3 (or more if you like sweet) cup of sugar or Splenda being added to the flour mix. In an effort to help them out I washed the tops with egg white and covered them heavily with sugar. In baking I watched them like a hawk and removed them as soon as they were ready. Even though fully baked they retained a gummy texture inside. I'm sorry but I won't try these again. Made for PAC, Fall '09.
