Don't try this on a tummy full of scrolls...
...So we woke up to an overcast day today, not exactly beach weather like this pict taken at the Mount yesterday... mmmmm beautiful!
but I'm sure we can find something cool to do anyway.
Anyway no more procrastinating here is the magic scroll "how to..."
... and the cheat ingredient is this...
Champion scone mix, you can get it at Moore Wilsons or a different brand of scone mix from Gilmores, price is about $19 - $25 for a 5 kg bag... I'm not too fond of the scone itself, but add some lovely extras and it's right up my tastebud's alley... anywho, carrying on....
I usually never measure stuff, however there are instructions on the back for water to mix ratio, I did a BIG batch of 6-7 cups of mix to about 4-5 cups of warm water... (don't quote me on that tho, just make it to your preferred consistency). So once you have a nice dough roll it out, rectangle pizza stylez...
Make a butter and brown sugar mix, like this, again at your own preferred measurement at consistency (if it looks like mine you're doing well)...
And spread it all over your rolled out dough...
Sprinkle with a mixture of sultanas and choclate chippies, my kids don't really like sultanas so I make half the mixture without them...
Roll into a snake, like so...
Cut into scrolls and arrange in a lined roasting dish... like so...
Let them bake for at least 30 minutes in a moderate to high heat or until lovely golden brown...
My recommendation is to eat these while still hot, preferably on holiday with a view like this...
Or pile them high like a mountain on a plate or cake platter... The last time I made these (excluding yesterday hehe!) was over a year ago, back then I drizzled a glaze of icing sugar and warm water over them with a drop of vanilla mmmm, thats if you want them sweeter than they already are...
You just CAN'T lose... Its thumbs up all round... ENJOY!!!
....While I still have you and you have another spare minute, I would like to introduce you to the hostess with the mostest... the Beautiful Miss Rahera, Thank you bub for your awesome hospitality and making us feel right at home...
Miss Rahera hails from a family of beautiful women who have funky, feminine and stunning dress sense, I love her Mum and her Aunties original style... Young Miss Ra is a style icon in her own right and here she is...
Modest and chic, she grabbed a warm scroll on her way out to meet friends... She wears her accessories flawlessly... don't forget the sunglasses and her little shoulder purse rocks! These wicked shoes could give my jandals a run for 1st place fav summer shoes.
Since being in Tauranga I have noticed the style of the young-un's up here is very laid back, fresh, beachy and natural, lots of kids up town with no shoes, riding skateboards, carrying boogie boards, hair out and loose, very surfy-style... and so Miss Ra epitomises the style of youth in Tauranga.
Ok... this has been very long post, but I hope you enjoyed it, don't forget to leave comments and press the follow button before you leave
