List of Ingredients

IRISH SCONES

2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp soda
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs-slightly beaten
1/2 cup milk
1 egg yolk
2 Tlbs. water

Into a mixing bowl, sift together all dry ingredients. Blend in butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Add all remaining ingredients; mix with a fork just until dry ingredients are moistened and a soft dough is formed. Divide into 2 parts. Turn each out onto a floured board, without handling. Flatten with a rolling pin into a 1/2 inch thick round. Cut into triangles or rounds. Blend together egg yolk and water. Brush on top of scones with pastry brush. Bake on a greased and floured cookie sheet at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Serve warm and lightly buttered.
