Puff Scones (Puff Pastry style scones)

Today, our scone is more special than usual because it looks like puff pastry ^^.


Anyway, it's not hard to make or takes much time as the real puff pastry (Ok, it takes more time than a simple one, hehe). It's for the day that you want to make something different (and delicious).

I saw this kind of scone a long time ago but just wanted to make it last week, haha.

And last week, our family had a scone week, because I made it every day until I got the result that I want.

The recipe is not complex, it takes longer to make but the working time is short (most of the time is for resting the dough). The thing that you have to pay attention to is when adding the large pieces of butter, don't mix too much, you only need to cover them with the flour. Then when adding the liquid, just press the mixture together until they come into one piece, don't knead or cut the butter.

 I fold the dough only 2 times (simple fold) but if you want your scone to have more layers you can add more. Anyway, I think that it's more delicious when the layer is not too thin.
