Moosey-Moose Bakes Scones

 

Hi Friends,

Today was baking day!  My first time ever.  Well, except for the time I helped Sleepy Bear bake brownies.  But that doesn’t count because this time I’m doing everything all by myself!

FlourI followed the recipe exactly.  I added flour.

 

 

 

 

Oats

 

Then I added oats.  Yum, yum.  Who says you have to cook them first?  Not me!

 

Almonds

 

I added almonds, too. The recipe didn’t say to add them, but I saw them in the cupboard and I like almonds.  So, in they went!

 

 

Measuring Cups as Snow Shoes

 

I discovered that measuring cups make super cool snow shoes.  I’ll try them outside the next time it snows!

 

 

Whippy Cream!


Back to the recipe.  This is the special part.  The recipe says to add heavy whipping cream.  I know Sleepy Bear likes whippy cream, so I mixed in extra with the eggs.

 

Mixing Dough is Hard

I also added chocolate chips because I like chocolate chips with my raisins and peanuts.  This is the hard part, mixing the dough all together.  I had to be careful not to get bonked in the head with the mixer.

 

Ready for the Oven

 

 

Finally!  I put the dough into the scone pan.

 

 

 

Time Ticks Slowly

Now the waiting begins.  Time sure ticks slowly when you want something in a hurry.

 

Tomorrow, I’ll tell you how they came out.  I hope Sleepy Bear likes them.  I know he’s feeling rotten and I really want to cheer him up.

Bye for now,

Chef Moosey-Moose
