Classic Cream Scones

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I didn't have eggs or heavy cream. I increased butter to 6 Tbps (salted), skipped salt, used 1/2 cup sour cream and about 1/3 cup half n half - enough to moisten all flour. Absolutely wonderful. Served with raspberry and marionberry jams.

    Classic Cream Scones,You’re best off describing scones to a German by saying that they are like a cross between a Kuchen (cake), a Plaetzchen (cookie), and a Broetchen (roll), but are very unique and not really like anything else found in Germany. My German husband *loves* this recipe: Classic Cream Scones (from Simply Scones, by Leslie Weiner and Barbara Albright),I didn’t have eggs or heavy cream. I increased butter to 6 Tbps (salted), skipped salt, used 1/2 cup sour cream and about 1/3 cup half n half – enough to moisten all flour. Absolutely wonderful. Served with raspberry and marionberry jams.,it is the best ever!!!! extremely delicious!! thank you.
