CWA Cheat Scones

I was so happy when I found this easy scone recipe that didn't require the mess of rubbing butter into flour. I now make Scones with my toddler all the time, she loves cutting out the Scones.

3 cups Self Raising flour
Pinch of salt
1 Cup Cream
1 Cup Milk

Heat oven to 220 degrees Celsius.
Put Self Rising flour and salt in a large bowl.
Add milk and cream and combine, if the mixture is too sticky add more flour.
Roll out onto a floured surface and roll to a thickness of around 1.5cm, or to your liking.
Cut out circles and place on a lined baking tray, you can brush the tops with butter or milk if you like.
Put in oven for 8-10 minutes.

Serve with jam and Cream.
I usually make whipped cream which is 100gms of Cream whipped with a teaspoon of caster sugar and a teaspoon of Vanilla extract.

Note: - You can easily add dried fruit to the mix, such as Dates and Sultanas.
         - I used Light cream and and the scones worked out fine. But light cream will not whip very well, you will need to whip it for at least 10 minutes in a mixer and even then it wont be really stiff.
