Ingredients
  • 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 11 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • May add cranberries, ginger, lemon peel, chocolate chips, orange zest, chopped candied ginger, pumpkin pie spice etc. OR any of your favorite flavors or combination of ingredients
  • I particularly like this recipe because the whipping cream along with the butter produces a delicious, delicate, melt-in-your-mouth scone!

Directions
  1. Blend flour, sugar, baking powder in food processor
  2. Add butter, cutting in by turning the processor on and off, on and off
  3. Mixture will resemble coarse meal
  4. Remove from processor and put in large bowl
  5. Make well in center and add 3/4 cup of the cream
  6. Using a fork, stir until just moist
  7. Place dough on a floured surface (can use floured wax paper)
  8. Gently knead until smooth, about 6 or 8 times
  9. Divide dough in half
  10. Pat each portion into 3/4 inch thick round
  11. Cut each round into 6 wedges (like when cutting a pie)
  12. Place the wedges on a lightly greased baking sheet
  13. Space them about 1 inch apart
  14. Brush tops with remaining 2 tablespoons cream
  15. Bake scones at 400 degrees until light brown, about 18 minutes.
  16. Cool completely, or grab a cuppa of coffee or tea and eat one while still warm
  17. When ready to serve re-warm in 350°F oven
  18. I have made them without using a food processor. Can use hand, pastry blender, or large fork to combine and make crumbly.
