    Too Hot Tamales

    List of Ingredients




    3 cups flour
    1/3 cup sugar
    1 teaspoon salt
    2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 tablespoon baking soda
    3/4 cup unsalted butter
    1 cup buttermilk
    1/2 cup currants (optional)
    1 tablespoon heavy cream (for brushing)

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 400ºF. Combine the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a large bowl. Add butter and mix with your fingertips to a coarse meal. Add buttermilk and mix just until combined. Add currants, if desired. Transfer dough to a floured board and divide into 2 parts. Roll each to 3/4 inch thick rounds. Cut each round into 8 wedges and place slightly separated on a greased baking sheet. Brush the tops with the cream, and bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly browned. Serve warm, split in half with butter and marmalade. Yield: 16 scones.
