TWD: No gingerbread, but how about some scones?

This week's TWD selection was Fresh Ginger and Chocolate Gingerbread chosen by Heather of Sherry Trifle. I'm not the biggest gingerbread fan. I mean, I'll eat a gingerbread man, but this recipe really didn't call out to me. Plus, it's only me here and I have given away so many sweets lately that I didn't want to make a recipe that may have gone to waste. So... I am taking another miss and will be sitting this recipe out. But, still check out the blogroll and Heather's blog for the recipe!



Now I didn't want to leave y'all empty handed, so I have a past TWD recipe for you. Like I said yesterday, I have been on a scone and muffin kick and I have been meaning to try the Apple Cheddar Scones for a while now. I finally got around to making them and I really enjoyed them. If you are a fan of apples & cheddar and a fan of scones, give these a try! You won't be disappointed.







Apple Cheddar Scones were chosen by Karina of The Floured Apron and the recipe can be found at her blog.

  7. Those scones are amazing! I LOVED them! Good throwback! But seriously, I'm not a gingerbread fan either. But this cake changed me. Do make it if you can bring yourself to it! You won't be sorry!

  14. I didn't make those because I was too chicken. I love apples, and I love cheddar, but I just couldn't wrap my brain around putting the two together. Maybe one of these days I'll give it a try.

  18. good idea to make the scones, they are certainly a lot lighter than the gingerbread! glad you liked them.

  19. Those look yummy. Maybe I should have tried something different as well. I'm not too fond of how the Ginger Chocolate bread tastes.

    I wanted to tell you last week that your trifles looked tremendous! I tried posting a comment, but it wouldn't post. For some reason, I often have difficulties getting my comments to post on you blog!

  21. Apple cheddar scones sound really good! I love grilled cheese sandwiches with apple slices and these scones sound like a perfect snack or breakfast.
