Miss Cleo's Favourite Waffles
This weekend the Family bought a Waffle Iron.
One member of the Family is mad on them
Our Miss Cleo of Course
Cleo’s Best Waffle Mixture
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups warm milk
1/3 Cup (76 gms) butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a large bowl mix together flour, salt, baking powder and sugar
Warm milk with butter to just melt it
Pre heat waffle iron
In another bowl beat the eggs, stir in milk and butter
Add vanilla
Pour this milk mixture into dry ingredients
Stir well till combined
Ladle the batter into preheated waffle iron
Cook waffles until golden and crisp
Personally I just like butter on them
But Miss Cleo loves that cream and maple syrup
Maybe its a kid thing?
Finished product excellent
We found this recipe of the allrecipes website

Tasty Flavoured Tomato Butter - Liberally Spread on the Best Cheese Scones - Divine
Now Here’s A Thing.
Seriously, I thought there was nothing finer than a good cheese scone.
BUT I have discovered an embellishment.
Tomato and Parsley Butter
Now these are really the Best Cheese Scone
Friends were coming over for Afternoon Tea, well actually and Afternoon Wine
Of course I must make food
So I whipped up a batch of Cheese Scones,
Normally I would just supply some good butter to spread on them
This time I decided to flavour the butter
Take 150 gms of Unsalted Butter at room temperature
4 Cherry Tomatoes, very finely chopped
2 tablespoons of chopped Parsley
Sea Salt and freshly Ground Black Pepper
Mash the butter
Add the tomatoes and parley
Season to taste with S & P
Spread liberally on the freshly baked scone
Seemed to go well, with the Champagne and also Chardonnay
Covers all bases
Just in case, people cant be bothered looking up how to make the scones… I have added the recipe for the scones from a previous post
So Pre-heat oven to 220C
1 cup of plain high grade flour
2 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder
Pinch of salt
Good pinch of Cayenne Pepper
1 cup grated tasty cheese
2 spring onions finely chopped
1/2 cup milk
Sift the dry ingredient into a big bowl
Add cheese, stir
Add spring onions
Add milk
Quickly mix and turn onto lightly floured bench
Pat into a circle
Cut into wedges
Place on a lined baking sheet (you could just flour it if you wish)
Bake for 8-10 minutes
Remove
Break open and put a nice pat of butter on top
Fantastic
