This is my first attempt at baking scones. The recipe said to roll the dough into an 8 inch circle, cut it into wedge and bake. I shaped it into some circle-like form and then tried cutting, but the dough was too sticky. I suppose I should have used a little more flour. So I baked it for ten minutes, and then took it out and cut into not-wedges. I broke out into a fit of giggles and then baked it for another ten minutes.
It came out okay, mainly because I added lots of chocolate chips I think. They look like freaks though, all misshapen.

I think I’m going to open a bake shop and just create crazy looking, yet yummy baked goodies.

You are brave. I made scones for friends recently. I made sure to cut them all before baking. They worked out very well. Google ‘Ina Garten’ recipes… They will not be healthy but I promise they will work out. XOXO.

Big smiles about the scones. How did they taste? BTW, I didn’t like that Donna Tartt book, but loved her first one (forgotten the name).

It was Secret History, I read it years ago and forgotten what it was all about, so after this one I’ll try to pick it up again. The scones taste fine, but I like their look better!
Thanks Jess, I am convinced though that it might be my calling to bake weird looking things.
