Devonshire Cream for Skinny Scones

Debber's Note:

This goes great with my Bed & Breakfast Scones especially if you're making the basic scone recipe, then you have room to add a few RICH calories like cream cheese! This is excellent as an alternative to regular (boring?) whipped cream on pies or cakes, too.

This is an excellent low fat alternative - I am always on the look out to cut calories and this fits the bill perfectly - way to go Debber !!

I had planned on serving this with scones but I made the scones and then realized I had run out of cream. So, I bought some cream and then ended up not having the scone ingredients. I ended up eating this with a spoon and some fruit. This was my first time having Devonshire Cream and all I can say is it won't be my last. Cream cheese and whipping cream- Oh yeah Baby! I'll be making this again!
