Melting Scones

By Lee

These yummy biscuits are kind of a cross between melting moments, oat biscuits and English scones. They really do melt in your mouth!

Ingredients

• 125 g butter, softened
• 3/8 cup (100g) white sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 cup (125g) self-raising flour
• 2 tablespoons cornflour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup (30g) rolled oats

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 190 degrees C. Grease baking trays.
2. Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolk and vanilla essence. Sift together the flour, cornflour and salt; stir into the butter mixture. Shape dough into 20 to 24 small balls, about 2cm in diameter. Roll each ball in the oats and place about 5cm apart on baking trays.
3. Bake 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown. Let cool on wire rack. Store in an airtight tin.
