Oreo Scones

I wanted to make oreo cheesecake but didn't have all the ingredients on hand as our lemon tree had been aggressively trimmed down and now only holds a handful of green lemons. So, I decided on oreo scones! I just adapted the apple scones recipe. Here's the ingredients list:

2 cups all-purpose flour

7 mega stuffed oreo cream fillings

2 tsps baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp kosher salt

1/4 cup chilled butter

14 oreo cookies (7 oreos)

3/4 cup milk

Basically, just threw everything in but the milk and let it mix for a bit until the oreo cookies and butter were crushed. Then added in the milk until dough formed.

The original recipe called for 1/2 cup milk, but as you can see, the dough was still not formed so I added another quarter cup milk.

The dough was very sticky after 3/4 cup milk.

Brought the dough out to a well floured surface.

Kneaded it about 5-7 times.

Then formed 3 five inch dome shaped circles and quartered them for a total of 12 pieces.

End result after baking in preheated oven of 425°F for 13 minutes. 

It's a very light oreo tasting scone. I think next time I'll add more oreos! But it was nice and crunchy on the outside but soft and bready on the inside. It was super tasty with mild goat cheese!
