Nothing today for me but yesterday I made scones and cornflake tart. Unfortunately I have lost my sweet tooth and didn't enjoy the cornflake cake but the scones were yummy

Do flapjacks freeze???
Anyway, as requested (again) by the kids, today I will be baking yet more double chocolate chunk muffins, only this time they will be in normal cake cases as the other ones are a bit huge!! Ginger biscuits, as I promised the hubby, I'd like to try Twinks and I have to make some sausage rolls with some reduced sausages, and with left over pastry I will be making apple turnovers with my leftover apples from Mondays muffins, plus of course some more flapjacks, the recipe I have found hits the spot remarkably well, mine original recipe was just a tad dry, so chuffed to jellybeans with that!
But before all that, I have to clean up this mess we call a kitchen!!Starting weight 17st 4lb - weight now 15st 2lbs

Today I have made a home made curry but for afters scones made with sour cream, dead easy and taste gorgeous. They keep in a cake tin for up to a week. This is the recipe:
Get a bowl
4 cups of SR flour
2 heaps table spoons of marg
2 heaped tablesppons of sugar
Rub together to make a bread crumb texture
*** if you are adding fruit in add it at this stage only put a bit in as the more you put in it will be heavier and
wont rise as high
Get a seperate bowl and put in it half a small tub or sour/sour lite and 1 egg mix it together then add to the mixture.
You should then mix together until you have a firm mixture which is not sticky.
Put into shapes using a small cup. Place in a baking tray touching each other then the scones will rise instead of spreading.
Bake in the middle of the oven for 20 mins at 180 degrees. Enjoy:)Started Self Managed DMP 10th May 2017.
