Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Peel, core, and finely chop the apples.
- Roughly chop the dark chocolate.
- Add the finely chopped apples and dark chocolate to the flour and butter mixture. Stir gently to distribute evenly.
- Gradually add about 1 to 1 1/4 cups of milk (cold), mixing gently with a knife until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead lightly until smooth. Roll or pat the dough to about 2cm (3/4 inch) thickness.
- Use a floured round cutter to cut out scones and place them on the prepared baking tray. Gather any leftover dough, knead lightly, and cut more scones.
- Brush the tops of the scones with a little milk for a nice glaze.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the scones are golden brown and cooked through.
- Transfer the scones to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm with butter, clotted cream, or jam if desired.
Tips:
- Use cold butter and chop it into small cubes before incorporating it into the flour. This helps create a crumbly texture for the scones.
- Peel and finely chop the apples to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Don't overmix the dough. Combine the ingredients until they just come together to keep the scones light and fluffy.
- Use a pastry cutter or your hands to mix the butter into the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes before baking to help the scones hold their shape and rise properly.
- Brush the tops of the scones with a little milk before baking to give them a golden brown finish.
With just a few simple ingredients and easy steps, you can create these delightful Caramilk and apple scones that are perfect for any occasion. The combination of apples and dark chocolate provides a balanced sweetness that is sure to please everyone. Enjoy your scones warm from the oven or stored for later enjoyment!
