52 MMMC Week 3: Sugar Crusted Fruit Scones

Having watched The Great British Bake Off I was intrigued by the "Sugar Crusted Scones" ... I LOVE scones, but don't think in all of my many afternoon teas that I have ever had a sugar crusted one ... and my fail safe recipe does not include this crust either ...

So, off I went to The Pink Whisk and tried out Ruth's recipe ... my first mistake was to assume that the recipe made 9 scones (the recipe I always use does ...) so the scones turned out a little small (the recipe should make 6). And, to be honest, I'm just not sure about the sugar crust ....

With crust, or without crust - what kind of scone do you prefer?

I've never tried with the crust before... maybe this is the excuse to give it a go?!

I have a giveaway over at my blog to celebrate my birthday (on Saturday) - just comment on any of my posts for an entry, the more comments you leave, the more entries you get....if you get my drift...lol Nice way to catch up with everything you may have missed in the madhouse that is my life!

Hope baby is doing well? Lots of love xx

PS I didn't mean 'baby' in a bad way, I'm just not sure if you've announced her name on here that's all! xx
