1/2 recipe = 6 scones These biscuits are very, very good! They bake up very flaky with a lovely crunchy crust and such a yummy gouda and rosemary flavour! Mmmm, I could have eaten the whole batch myself. lol I made half the recipe ending up with 6 big biscuits. I used fresh rosemary and changed the flour to whole spelt flour due to dietary reasons. The biscuits baked up perfectly in the time stated and were gone in a flash! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful recipe with us, dicentra! Made and reviewed for Magic of Herbs June 2010.
