This weekend we hosted a brunch to celebrate Nick’s birthday. This was occasion enough for me to become a scone making machine! I made three kinds, cranberry dark chocolate, rosemary and parmesan and sweet potato. (I also made banana bread in a fit of baking craziness.) Since I love scones and am at least a quarter Scottish, I’m pretty critical of them. These ones turned out great though (if I do say so myself)! I used a Martha Stewart recipe for a basic dough, and put in my own ingredients at the end to change their flavour. The sweet potato scones were an older recipe that is now tested and true.
