Gluten-Free Note: I made these with a gluten-free flour mix. I also used Kefir in place of the milk. They were fantastic!

Yum! I cut the recipe in half for just two of us, and after making the dough I mixed a few Tbsp of chocolate chips into one half and a few drops of vanilla extract into the other half. Made two mini-rounds, each cut into 4, topped with a sprinkle of sugar and baked for 10 minutes (the vanilla was done, the CC needed a couple more minutes). Drizzled them with a basic powdered sugar glaze. We devoured them too quickly to think about taking a picture, but I'll post one next time (and there WILL be many next times). Thanks so much for sharing!

These scones are perfect for those who want a delicately sweet, but simple confection - I used 1/3 cup of sugar, but I have mine plain with coffee. KEY: Make 2 rounds, not 1. Also, I prefer cutting each round into eighths, as they bake better. Cut each round into quarters, and then neatly bissect each quarter into two equal triangles - they come out more evenly than slicing across the round to make eighths. Baste with milk, and sprinkle liberally with sugar to make a flavorful coating. I had to bake mine for 15 minutes to get them done. Delectable and reassuring comfort food.

This is an extremely simple recipe that can be adapted in so many ways! I added about a 1/2 cup of sweetened dried cranberries, a 1/2 cup of walnuts (chopped small), and the zest of one large orange. Before putting them in the oven, I sprinkled them with some sugar. YUM! Can't wait to experiment with other flavor combinations - thanks for posting! -M (Note: I like to form the dough into a rectangle and cut 6 squares, then cut each square diagonally to get 12 scones.) Made these again as a "welcome home" surprise for my folks who were returning from MN. Orange & cranberry is their favorite, and I have found that cutting the dough with a biscuit cutter is much easier than forming the traditional wedge-shape. They also seem to bake more evenly. -M =)
