These scones come by way of the Alice's Tea Cup cookbook. Their recipe is for rice crispy treat scones. I know that sounds a bit odd, but the cookbook acknowledges it and swears that they are good. Well right off the bat, I decided that they would be better with chocolate--a rice crispy treat crossed with a s'more crossed with a scone. All I did was toss in some mini chocolate chips at the end, other than that it was Alice's recipe. And the cookbook was right; they are great scones. The Rice Krispies give the scones a light and slightly crispy texture but they don't add too much crunch. The mini marshmallows get melted and the ones on the edges get caramelized in the oven giving the whole thing a sweet, gooey texture. The scone itself was tender and sweet, but not overly sweet. The chocolate, of course, was delicious with the marshmallows and the scone as a whole. Probably not my favorite scone, but it's up there near the top!
