A tea party for my girl.

Hello friends,Ariel had asked me the other day if we could have a tea party together and so I thought,why not? So yesterday we had a little tea party.Here are a few recipes I used to make a nice little tea party for her.

                First we made cream scones.

Start with 1/4 cup butter in your mixer,then   add 1/8th cup of sugar and mix

Then add in 2 beaten eggs and  1/2 cup of cream or half & half.                                       

Mix in 2 cups flour 3 teaspoons baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt.Mix  and turn out on floured board.

Roll out to about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick and then cut in either squares or triangles.Then I brush the tops with cream and sprinkle on sugar.          

              Bake at 375 for 20 minutes.

We also made Devonshire cream to go with these.

To make this yummy cream mix together one 3 oz block of cream cheese softened,1/2 cup whipping cream not Cool whip
and 3 tbsp powdered sugar.You can add more if you like it sweeter and mix until smooth.Serve on your scones with jam or with fresh fruit.

After the scones we made some sugar cookies with pink frosting.Since I'm a couponer I had sugar cookie mix in my cupboard as well as frosting I just colored pink,so that was easy.

So here is what the table looked like when we were done.

 
After everything was done we put together our plates and watched a few episodes of Pioneer Woman one of Ariel's favorite shows.I had one happy girl on my hands.
