     2 tb Sugar
     2 ts Baking powder
   1/2 ts Salt
   1/2 c  Leftover mashed potatoes
          - (113 g)

NNNNN---------------------SWEET FILLING *----------------------------
     3 tb Unsweetened cocoa powder
 3 1/2 tb Butter; room temperature

NNNNN--------------------SAVORY FILLING *----------------------------
     1 c  Cabbage (30 g); grated
   2/3 c  Carrots (30 g); grated
     2 tb Onion chutney

 * enough for 6 Sandwiches

 Prepare The Scones:

 Grease a large baking sheet. Set the oven @ 400 F/205 C.

 Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl.
 Add the mashed potatoes and mix well. Rub in the margarine or
 butter with your fingers, then add 3 tb of the milk and gently work
 to form a soft dough, adding 1 or 2 more tb of milk, if needed.

 On a floured surface, using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll out
 the dough until it's about 1/3" thick. Cut into 12 circles using a
 2" cookie cutter. Brush the tops with just enough additional milk
 to glaze.

 Transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet, setting them
 about 1-1/2" apart, and bake until golden on top, about 15 minutes.
 Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

 Make Your Desired Filling:

 For the sweet filling, in a small bowl, mix together the cocoa
 powder, margarine, sugar, and milk thoroughly. For the savory
 filling, loosely combine the cabbage, carrots, and chutney.

 Make the sandwiches: Once the scones have cooled, divide your
 desired filling among half the scones and top with the remaining
 scones to form sandwiches.
