A Sweet Holiday Cheat

This is not something we typically blog about but exceptions must be made every once in a while for truly great finds - Sticky Fingers Scones are one of them.   They are these great scones that come in all kinds of flavors like rasberry/white chocolate, tangy lemon, and spicy apple. They also have special holiday flavors right now like spiced eggnog, peppermint/chocolate chip, and pumpkin cranberry. I always buy them at Cost Plus World Market and make them to bring to friends' houses when we are invited for dinner. People are always thoroughly impressed by how delicious they are and amazed that I have time to make them when they know what long hours I work. The trick is that all you have to do to make them is add 3/4 cup of water to the mix and then put teaspoon-sized scoops on a baking sheet and bake for 18 minutes. That's it! I really do feel like I am cheating by not admitting how easy they are to bake. But I guess my secret is out with this blog article, huh? It's just that I was just making some this afternoon for holiday baskets and felt compelled to share. So yes, for any of you busy brides who want to look like the perfect hostess with the very little free time you have while planning your wedding, I strongly recommend these delicious scones.
