Unfortunately, I don’t have access to specific recipes from Zizi’s Cake Delights or their Ultramel Scones recipe. However, I can provide you with a basic scone recipe that you can adapt to your liking:
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup Ultramel (or milk, cream, or buttermilk)
- 1 large egg
- Optional: 1/2 cup raisins, currants, or other dried fruit
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the cold butter pieces to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- If using dried fruit, add it to the flour mixture and toss to coat.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the Ultramel (or milk/cream/buttermilk) and egg until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead it a few times until it holds together.
- Pat the dough into a circle about 1 inch (2.5 cm) thick. Use a sharp knife or biscuit cutter to cut the dough into wedges or rounds.
- Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
- Bake the scones in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top and cooked through.
- Remove the scones from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
- Serve the Ultramel Scones warm with butter, jam, clotted cream, or your favorite toppings.
Enjoy your homemade scones!
