So, my twin sister, Terry, just left from her visit to Round Top. It’s always great having her visit because we can catch up on what’s going on, play my new favorite game (Five Crowns) she taught me, shop or do nothing at all and we are still much on the same page of what’s going on in our lives. She loved visiting Round Top Brewing (Paul & Brooke) and trying their Duck Confit Taco (and his delicious gumbo) and we played many a game of FC on the porch at the brewery.

 

I cooked a few new things while she was here (new for her) like my Halal Cart Style Chicken (she liked) and we tried our hand at Crispy Fried Rice & Green Beans after sampling it at a local venue. I feel like we have the recipe spot on now and have to say ours was pretty darn good.

 

 

So on to the scones; what this post is about. I’ve made many a scone in the past several decades. Wow, that makes me sound pretty old doesn’t it? One of my favorite scones has always been black walnut but I have to say that these macadamia nut scones rank right next to the black walnut ones. I made these and put in the freezer so we enjoyed them for several mornings with a good jar of blackberry jam. Here is the way I freeze/cook scones. Take scones out of freezer and place on either parchment or a silpat cooking mat. Turn the oven to 400° and when it has preheated, pot the scones in and bake until nice and brown. Serve with a cream or jam or both. Enjoy with a cup of tea and don’t put that pinkie out.

 

One day when we are in our house, I’m hoping to offer a Spirited Afternoon Tea available to any ladies groups that may be in town. I have pages of ideas I have used over the years when I’ve done teas in my home. I love preparing beautiful, delicious and unique savories/sweets for an Afternoon Tea (not High Tea) and can’t wait to share the experience.

I used my food chopper on the macadamia nuts. Don’t get them too fine.
