I was in the mood for scones two days ago, so I decided to bake some. I searched for a recipe, but I could not find one that I was keen on, so I made my own. The scones turned out well, but could have been more flavorful. If I make them again I will add a few shakes of salt, a little more sugar, and a little bit more Kahlua.

Here is the recipe I created.

Coconut Yogurt Scones

2 cups all purpose flour

4 tsp baking powder

2 tbsp white sugar

¼ cup margarine

½ cup of yogurt (I used cherry)

½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut

2 medium-large eggs

½ cup sultana raisins

Milk (enough to make a slightly sticky dough)

2 tbsp Kahlua

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Celsius. In a large bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and coconut. Cut in the margarine (or use a pastry blender). Add the yogurt and eggs, and Kahlua. Mix well. Add enough milk to make a moderately sticky dough. Mix well. Add the raisins. Bake until lightly golden (or a tooth pick comes out clean). Enjoy.
