Fabulous! I followed other reviews and used half butter and half applesauce because I didn't have a whole cup of butter on hand. These are just excellent and I will make them often! I am so happy that you posted this, thank you.

    Love this recipe and like many of the others I've made a few slight adjustments. First, I've found out my Kitchen Aid mixer works great at making scones. Just put in the dry ingredients then add the butter in small chunks while the mixer is on the lowest setting. I then add the wet ingredients after the dry/butter mixture looks crumbly. I also added about half a bag of cinnamon chips --- makes this recipe even tastier! I've made many, many batches and keep getting requests to make more.

    Mmmmm...These were great! The only change I made is in stead of a cup of butter, I cut in 1/2 cup butter and added 1/2 cup apple sauce with the wet ingredients.
