Cream Tea Cakes image

'Cream cakes' are not a specific item, but a term that refers to a variety of goodies served at tea. Scones, cakes, buns, and biscuits may be spread with cream and/or jam. Here's a Lake District recipe for 'Upland's Biscuits'. When cool, sandwich in pairs with raspberry jam. A dollop of clotted cream on top, a pot of strong tea, aahhh!

I made these cream tea cakes for my family and they loved them! The cakes are so moist and flavorful, and the cream filling is the perfect amount of sweetness. I will definitely be making these again.

I was really excited to try these cream tea cakes, but I was disappointed. The cakes were dense and the cream filling was too runny. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.
