Samoas Scones

I spent an afternoon this week with new friend from the Czech Republic (along with  her 18 mo. old son) and a young friend who moved here from New York not long ago.
   We enjoyed a small tea party while visiting the afternoon away.
Here's the recipe for these delicious delicacies!
Samoas Scones
3 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter, chilled and cut into pieces
1 cup milk
6-oz semisweet chocolate, melted w/tsp. of oil to thin

1 cup caramel sauce 
 3/4 cup shredded coconut
Preheat oven to 400F.
Grease baking sheet.
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
Cut in chilled butter.
Add 1 cup milk
Divide dough in half.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and flatten into a disc about 1/2-inch thick.
Cut into 8 wedges.
 Repeat with second piece of dough.
Bake for 16-20 minutes, until scones are a light golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
Melt the chocolate in a small bowl.
 Combine caramel and coconut in a small bowl.
Spread scones with the caramel and coconut mixture
Drizzle with chocolate
Makes 16 scones.
Serve and Enjoy!

Hmm, I think my daughter and I need to have a tea party soon. Those look delicious, and they also happen to include all of my favorite ingredients. :)
