Place on your prepared tray and press or roll into a circle shape about 1 inch thick.

Step 9

Cut into 8 equal wedges and separate them so they all have some space between them.

Step 10

Sprinkle with a little sugar then bake in the oven for 20 - 25 minutes or until cooked through (if you aren't sure you can insert a toothpick or skewer and it should come out mostly clean).

Step 11

Cool on a cooling rack.

Put the chocolate and milk into a small bowl and either melt very carefully and slowly in a microwave or over a bowl of simmering water.

Use a spoon to drizzle the melted chocolate mixture over the cooled scones.
