These scones are delicious! You were right. I prefer my scones a little sweeter (sweetened whipped cream would suffice), but Chris loves them! Thanks for posting a good scone recipe. Finally, I can end my quest!

Thank goodness there is an egg in the recipe: we just got our baby chicks! 4 buff orpington and 4 black cochin. It was worth the 6 months of trying to coerce the hubby to let us get them! I will try to get some pics for you to post.
Thank you for the information you and the other bloggers have given us to get us started.

Hmm, making them thinner like that probably makes them much better than the thick ones I get in the cafeteria. I don’t see why anyone would want a two inch thick scone, they are so hard to cook that way too…

I used to make a recipe pretty similar to this one. It is yummy. My currant favorite (no pun intended) is in the _Alice Bay cookbook_ by Julie Wilkinson Rousseau. It calls for buttermilk, no egg. When I want to get really local and homemade, I use the butter I make and the buttermilk left over from making the butter.
