You can also make scones the hard way, but
I find the method below much more convenient. |
Ingredients
For the hot chocolate (per person):
- 250 ml milk
- 2 tsp cacao powder
- 2 tsp sugar
- some whipped cream
For the scones (makes 6-8):
- 1 pack of traditional fruit scones mix (available at supermarkets in their
home baking section)
- 100 ml milk
- For serving: some butter, marmelades, and perhaps whipped cream.
Preparation
Hot chocolate:
- Pour the milk that you need for the number of servings, less 10%, in a
sauce pan and heat on a low fire.
- Meanwhile, prepare the cacao mix in a separate a mug for each serving:
Mix the cacao powder and suger, then add a little milk and stir until
thoroughly mixed. The mixture should have the consistency of a thick sauce.
- When the milk is hot, add to the mugs and mix thoroughly until the cacao
mixture is dissolved. Serve with some whipped cream on top.
Scones:
- Follow the instructions on the package. Basically, you have to add some
milk to the scones mix, knead, roll out, stamp out (round) scones, then
bake for app. 20 minutes.
- Serve with some butter and various marmelades. Some whipped cream is also
nice.
