Cream Scones

A good dose of heavy cream makes these scones nice and flavourful. Serve them warm from the oven, with a nice fruit or cream cheese spread.

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 cups flour
• 3 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 3 tbs sugar
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 5 tbs butter
• 2 eggs, slightly beaten
• 1/2 cup heavy cream

Preparation:

Combine flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in butter, and stir in eggs and cream. Turn out dough onto a floured board and knead briefly. Roll out to 1-inch thick and cut out 2-inch rounds. Place on a baking sheet and bake scones in a preheated 400F oven for about 15 minutes or until tops are brown. Serve warm.
