Scone Recipe (C.w.a.)

I believe this is the recipe that the Country Womens Association used at the Royal Melbourne Show. Light and fluffy.this one is a no brainer! Served with cream and jam.......ooohhhhhhhh so very yummy! High Tea anyone?

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Yields: 36 scones

Ingredients

• 750  g self raising flour (6 cups)
• 1  teaspoon salt
• 250  ml  cream (1 cup)
• 500  ml milk (approx)

Directions

1. Sift flour and salt really well together.
2. Add sufficient enough milk and cream gradually, to make a firm but not dry mixture (just enough milk to make a dough, which is easy to handle and not too sticky, without to much extra flour on the board).
3. Roll the mixture one way lightly. Cut and place scone shapes on a cold tray and brush tops with a little milk or melted butter.
4. Bake in an oven set at 220C for 8 to 10 minutes.
