Directions
Chocolate Chip Rum Raisin Scones, This wonderful combination of chocolate, raisins, and rum, makes these scones not only delicious, but also so attractive to look at Makes 8 jumbo scones or 12 average size scones , Yummy scones, Annacia! I made a full recipe as written, but halved & plumped the raisins in the rum as we discussed & made them in a deep 10-in rd baking dish vs the drop method This did require a full 15 min baking time at 160 C after the initial 12 min at 180 C The rum flavor was barely present when 1st eaten warm from the oven & I preferred them at rm temp as that flavor was more prominent when the choc had cooled They have a perfect level of sweetness & the texture is more cake-like than a typical scone Your stated yield appears to be right on & I am freezing 4 of them for an afternoon coffee next weekend to see how well that works Thx for sharing this great recipe w/us Loved them! 🙂
