Muesli Scone - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups self-raising flour
    1/3 cup caster sugar
    50 g butter (cold finely chopped plus extra to serve)
    3/4 cup muesli (toasted fruit)
    1 cup milk
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 200C (180C fan forced).
    Grease a baking tray.
    Place flour and 2 tablespoons of the sugar in a large bowl and using fingertips, sub in 50 grams butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs (I would use a food processor and then transfer to a bowl) and then stir in 1/3 cup muesli.
    Add milk to flour mix and using a round bladed knife, mix until soft dough forms and using hands bring dough together in bowl to form a ball.
    Turn dough onto prepared tray and press dough out to 20cm (diameter) disc and sprinkle remaining muesli and sugar over top of dough.
    Using a sharp knife dipped in flour, mark 8 wedges in top of dough and then bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden and scone sounds hollow when tapped lightly.
    Remove from oven and stand for 5 minutes.
    Using markings as a guide, cut into wedges and serve with extra butter.
    INDIVIDUAL MINI SCONES - press dough out onto a floured surface to 2cm thick and using a small round pastry cutter, cut into rounds and place on a greased baking tray and bake for about 10 to 12 minutes (guesstimate) or until golden and have a hollow sounds when lightly tapped.
