These are wonderful!! I exchanged regular milk with buttermilk for a different flavor. With some strawberry preserves and devonshire cream (the recipe on this site), it's a perfect breakfast!

This recipe is fabulous and can be made vegan very easily with egg replace, soy milk and earth balance. And it makes a lot more than 8!

Excellent recipe. I was able to reduce the butter slightly and use a bit less of the egg/milk mixture (a great suggestion from other reviewers), and they were quite nice and light. I used some of the remaining egg/milk mix to brush the tops before baking, too.

Great recipe! I think next time I will try 4 tsp of baking powder (instead of 5) as these seemed to come out with a "muffin-like" texture. Excellent taste!! I added blueberries and will make them with craisins next time!

I added the zest of one orange and about 1/3 cup of mini chocolate chips. The finished product was very good, but the dough was very sticky while making them. I added quite a bit more flour to make it manageable. I also cut them into more than 8 wedges otherwise they were too big. I had never made scones before and was suprised at how well they turned out. Looking forward to making more- maybe with cranberries.

Great Recipe!! I love Dunkin Donuts scones and these were perfect. I made two rounds (16 scones) making one round with chocolate chips... these were gone almost before they were out of the oven! And the second batch I made with dried cranberries that I moistened and seasoned with cinnamon, brown sugar, and nutmeg. I also sprinkled cinnamon/sugar on top before baking. I did find the oven too hot, making the edges crispy and the center too gooey. So I just lowered the oven temp to 375 and baked them for 5 extra minutes. 5 stars!

I make this all the time and they are hit each time. I serve them with cream and warm jams. Before baking, I fold each triangle twice, so my scones are thick and moist in the middle.

Very yummy! I used past suggestions and used 1 egg with enough milk added to make 1 cup, which worked well. The dough was crumbly in the bowl, but came together with a little kneading. Be sure to use chilled butter, which gives it the right texture. This time, I added 2t cinnamon and some cinnamon chips. I'll also try lemon blueberry, and clotted cream with jam. Thanks for the great recipe!

Made these with 4 teaspoons of baking powder, because another scone recipe I have requires that. Also, used 1/2 shortening & 1/2 butter. Also, added cinnamon to the dough & sprinkled with granulated sugar. Quite delicious! Since the dough was really wet (humid today), I just dropped them on a cookie sheet. SO easy! My 4 yr old & 6 yr old plus my husband said to keep the recipe! I think I'll try cinnamon chips next time....and maybe a pwdered sugar glaze. Yummy!

This is my absolute favorite scone recipe. I have added everything from chocolate chips to peaches to it and they turn out GREAT every time! Try some blue cheese and walnuts or just sprinkle some cinnamon and sugar on top...either way they are yummy. I split the dough in half and make two 8" circles. The scones are a bit smaller, but seem to rise better and you can make a couple different kinds.

Oh my goodness!!!! I have never had a scone before in my life so i don't know if these are how scones are supposed to taste but...they turned out absolutely delicious!!! They practically melt in your mouth and have a rich buttery flavor. Thank you so much for the recipe!

I think this recipe is missing something. I had to add significantly more flour to get something I could work with. They still turned out good, and I'll likely use the recipe again, but with more flour.

Oh....My....Gosh! These are so yummy, I just wish they weren't all fat :-( I guess that's why they're so great though, huh? I added cinnamon and orange juice with a little orange zest, and they came out wonderful. I was a little worried about the reviewers that stated 5 tsp of baking powder was too much, and I surely do value my tooth enamel, so I compromised with 4 tbs, and followed yet anothers suggestion to add the egg to the measuring cup and then enough liquids to make 1 cup. It ended up being about 1/3 c of orange juice and 1/2 c of milk. The dough was a little sticky, but if you knead gently and use a little extra flour on your hands they come out just fine. Made 16 scone sized scones, not sure how big the submitter likes her scones, but 8 would be mighty big, like a big scone muffin. I will make these again and again! Thanks!

This was what I was looking for. The most delicious scones. Made it again with 3/4 c whole wheat flour and it still came out delicious and light. Couldn't stop eating them. Can't make them too often because I'm on weight watchers.

I don't know why some reviewers seemed so upset with the amount of baking powder in this recipe. I doubled the recipe and they came out wonderfully. I didn't roll them out, though, I just sort of dropped them in clumps and flattened them a little. They didn't taste caustic, and I used just as much baking powder as was called for. I added about 2 cups of raisins (for double recipe) and they were soooo good! Thanks for a great recipe, will use this again!
