Tea Scones
 From Cook The Irish Way
 Ingredients:
 100 G or 4 oz of butter 600 G or 1 lb of flour 2 teaspoons of baking powder 
half a teaspoon of salt 50 G or 2 oz of sugar 1 egg a third of a pint of milk
 METHOD:
 Rub the butter into the flour, add the baking powder, salt and sugar and mix 
well.  Beat the egg and add to the milk.  Mix the liquid into the dry 
ingredients to make a manageable dough neither too firm nor too slack.  If 
necessary add more milk.
 Turn out onto a floured board or surface, using a floured rolling pin roll out 
until the dough is 1 inch thick and using a pastry cutter cut out rounds.
 Arrange on a lightly floured baking sheet and bake at 420 degrees Fahrenheit 
until risen and brown which should take approximately 15 minutes.
 Yields 18 scones.
