Created by West Indians living in England, these are scrumptious.

Preheat oven to 375F (190C). Grease a baking sheet; set aside. Sift flour,
baking powder and salt into a medium-size bowl; stir in sugar. In a large
bowl, thoroughly mix potatoes and 1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter with a
fork. Add dry ingredients and mix to form a soft dough. Turn out onto
floured surface. Roll out with a floured rolling pin or pat dough with your
hands to make a round about 1/2-inch thick. Cut into rounds with a 2-inch
fluted or plain cookie cutter. Place 1 to 1 1/2 inches apart on baking
sheet; brush tops with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter. Bake
about 20 minutes or until light brown. Split and serve warm with butterand
honey. Makes about 10 scones.
