CURRANT SCONES WITH WARM ORANGE SPREAD
Recipe By : Pillsbury, Real Home Baking
Serving Size : 8
Category: Scones
Preparation:
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 cups All-purpose flour -- or unbleached
1/4 cup Granulated sugar
3 teaspoons Baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Cardamom
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/4 cup Butter or margarine
1/3 cup Dried currants
2 teaspoons Orange peel -- grated
1/2 cup Buttermilk
1 Egg
1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
Orange spread:
1/2 cup Orange juice
2 tablespoons Brown sugar -- packed
2 teaspoons Cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon Orange peel -- to 1 teaspoon

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly spoon the flour into a measuring cup; level
off. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, cardamom and
salt; mix well. Using a pastry blender or fork, cut in the margarine until the mixture
is crumbly. Stir in the currants and orange peel. In a small bowl, combine the
buttermilk and egg; add all at once, stirring just until the dry ingredients are
moistened. On a well floured surface, gently knead the dough 5 or 6 times. Place
on an ungreased cookie sheet; press into an 8-inch circle, about 1 inch thick.
Cut into 8 wedges; do not separate. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar. Bake for 15
to 25 minutes, or until light golden brown. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan,
combine the orange juice, brown sugar and cornstarch. Bring to a boil over
medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Boil for 1 minute, or until thickened. Stir in
the orange peel. Cut the warm scones into wedges; serve with warm spread
