      These scones were quick and easy to make,plus they were REALLY tastey! We will deffinitely be making these again. Another review for these scones mentioned basting them with milk and sprikling them with sugar. I tried it and the scones came out of the oven with a really yummy, sweet crust on top! Can't wait to try some other variations!

      Delicious, easy, versatile. I'm excited to try different variations on this. I added cinnamon to the recipe - I think I'll try cardamom next time. Also going to try various dry fruits: figs, dates, etc. and maybe some fresh fruit variations too. This will be fun!

      These are really yummy and can be made fast. I freeze the butter and grate it in and I use about 1/2 cup sugar.

      Versatile. Note to self. USed yogurt in place of the milk and added some vanilla. You could put anything in these like raisins, choc chips, cranberries, etc for different versions. I used the Kitchen Aid slowly to blend. They rose quite a bit more than I expected.

      Perfectly delicious. I brushed them with milk and sprinkled them with coarse sugar before baking.

      Amazing and easy! I just started throwing random things I had in the fridge and cupboard some vanilla, orange zest, chocolate chips. They were great!

      I was a bit worried about them being too plain because I usually buy my husband flavored scones. (He's never liked my bisquick scones.) So I sprinkled cinnamon and sugar on them but it wasn't needed they were amazing! Definitely my go to recipe from now on!

      Have looked every where for a simple basic recipe to make scones, this is it! I added fresh raspberry's and white chocolate chips to mine. They tasted just as good as the one's i USED to by at a local coffee house.

      These scones turned out really well for me. I used to bake scones off and on before college, but got out of the habit, so I'm not entirely new to the process. I substituted 1 cup of white wheat pastry flour, bought from my local co-op, and brushed the tops with 2% milk and cinnamon sugar before baking. While I prefer my scones (and biscuits) to be on the side of undercooked, rather than overcooked, I do think that next time I'll keep these in the oven 15 minutes. I tried 12, put them back in for another 2, and they are still slighly underdone, IMHO. I used a scant 1/3 cup of sugar, and the scones are sweet enough to eat without embellishment beyond the cinnamon sugar topping (I cut them in half, to test the taste, and the bottom is as tasty as the top. They are extra delicious drizzled with honey, and I'm enjoying one wtih my Zen green tea with half 'n' half and honey as we speak. Thank you for sharing!

      Made these this morning, I've tried many scone recipes over the years and this one is so easy and quick to make. The results were great, although I did have to increase the cooking time a bit as they weren't done at 12 mins. Have added to my cookbook, will certainly be making them again, next time may add some cranberries or other goodies.

      FANTASTIC! I followed the recipe exactly, except I used dark spelt flour and an extra tbsp of baking powder. Mixed it all with a hand mixer. I'll be making these again and again. Thanks for posting!

      Adapted for whole wheat pastry flour and made giant scones (8). Good with lots of butter and jelly, but will have to try it with more liquid, sugar and cutting them smaller. Maybe adding maple syrup instead of sugar... due to the ww flour I will have to continue to tweak it :) TY

      So easy and tasty. I needed more milk to bring it together but no big deal. I would loved to have posted a pic but they were ALL gone before I grabbed the camera.

      These were just what I was looking for! A very simple, forgiving recipe that I could adapt as I chose. I added cranberries, walnuts and orange zest, and then sprinkled the top with just sugar-----just amazing. I will make these alot!

      So simple to make. I followed the recipe exactly and they came out quite good. Next time I may add either raisins or craisins. I did use the 1/3 cup sugar and added some sugar on the top before baking.

      Made these with wholemeal flour and they were wonderful. Quite sweet despite using the lesser amount of sugar. I used a scone cutter and it made 14 round scones.
