INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Soak currants in Frangelico to soften.
Cut butter into small cubes and place into food processor. Add half
the flour and process until blended, then add remaining flour and
process until mixture just resembles coarse meal. Transfer to bowl and
add cream slowly mixing with fingers until dough just holds together.
Add currants and mix gently. Flatten into a round and wrap in plastic.
Chill for 30 minutes. Roll dough into circle 1/2-inch thick for small
scones, 3/4-inch thick for larger ones. Using a biscuit or cookie
cutter, cut the dough into various shapes. (1 1/2-inch cookie cutter
hearts for 50 mini scones.) Butter a large baking sheet and place
scones on it. Combine egg and light cream in a bowl and brush the tops
of scones with mixture. Bake until golden brown and puffed, 13 to 15
minutes. Serve with jams. TVG 2-93 MC formatted/busted by Martha Hicks
